THE SINKING MAY BE SAVED/

HOLLOWAY'S PILLS.

THZ history of this great remedy is the most
wonderful medical revelation that the world has
ever known. It establishes the all important fact that
wugsgysit and in WHATEVER IsHAPR internal dimes'',
etists, the disinfecting, searching, and healing properties
of the Pills Sr. fully equal to its subjection and cure.
This isnot • history written by one man, or even derived
from the experiences of one nation., it comiats of • com-
pilation of testimonials (ruin the suck iii every country,
an unimpeachable record, the like of which has never
been adduced in favour of any other discovery or inven-
tion since time began.
FOR THE CURE OF DROPSY.

Holloway's Pile for the cure of dropsical affectjo
The causes of this direful disease are various. It is often
engendered by the morbid state of the system whereby
the free circulation of the blood is impeded, or it may
originate from some preceding complaint. The first
thing to be done to effect a cure is, to remove any ob-
structions by purifying the blood and causing the dis-
charge of the superabundant fiuids from the body; for
this purpose take Hodoway's Pills, as they possess such
cleansing properties that the dropsical patient is gradu-
ally restored to health, and the whole frame is perma-
aently renovated. These pills may be safely taken by
rale or female. at all periods of life. The Ointment
will do wonders if well rubbed into the parts affected as
effectually as salt is forced into meat twice a day.

TUE DEICE OF CAMBlODGE.—rnexpected circlunstan-
Ces have m Own which have delayed his Royal Highness
the Duke of Cambridge from taking any immediate steps
for the occupation of his own mansion, Gloucester Hoare.
That this will be decided on ere long there is no doubt,
for we believe that the future occupants of the apart-
ments in St. James's Palace, now held by the Com-
mander in Chief, have already made arrangements. Soon
after the Duke of Cambridge has comfortably installed
himself in Gloucester House, it is said a near connection
of the Crown will become the occupant of this desirable
and in every way suitable residence.
A memorial on behalf of the Society of Friends,
strongly urging the observance of a pacific policy in the

BREACH OF PHOMIKR OF BA •RIA“E.—An action hal
just beer, tried at the Glasgow Sheriff Court, at the
instance of Jessie Taylor, Hospital-street, Glasgow,
against Adam Baird, concluding for the sum of mu as
damages for failure to fulfil • promise of marriage. The
defender admitted that be incite the promise, but pled
that lie was justified in his refusal to perform it on
account of the violent temper of the woman. Sheriff
Smith found damages to the amount of co, but his
Judgment Was appealed against to the Sheriff (Sir A.
&Ikon), who niiied the sum to £lO. The 131110 had
made frequent presents to his intened bride, but the
parties bad a difference one Sunday on coming from the
church, in mineral ui nee of the pursuernot wearing • cloak
which be had given her. This led to his not offering her
his ann, in consequence of which they walked together

fen above a mile without speaking to each other; and
when at length the defender broke silence by saying,
"It's • cold day," the pursuer replied. " I ion WHIC the
wanner fur you," and shortly she desired hint to leave
her, which he azeordingly did. Afterwards the pursuer
wrote a long letter to the defender, confessing her fault,
and urging upon liim not to make it a grievance for
breaking off so serious an engagement as that of mar-
riage, and quoting texts of the scriptures on the subject.
The defender, however, we obdurate ; and the sheriff,
bolding that both the parties were to blame, awarded
damages an stated above.

to contain from 711 to 1011 per cent, of iron. They
are making extensive preparations to commence
working on a large scale. The engineer states it is
the best ore they know of, and so extensive is the

years. Regular worl/4ing will commence in about a

ITALY.

Sardinia appears bent upon an explosion. The reserve '
—including land transnort companies. hospital attend.
ants, and military workmen—has been called out; an
entire force estimated at from 30,000 to 40,000 men.
No delay or excuse is admitted. Sick men's certificate's,
attested by the mayor of their locality, must be renewed
every fortnight, men absent from their homes are to be
recalled by their relatives or by the mayor; and those
who remain absent for inure than fifteen days after the
expiration of the time allowed for joining are to be
treated as deserters. More remarkable is the rumour
that Count Csvour has actually intimated to the French
Minister at Turin his intention to serve • summons on
the French government, forthwith, for aid and assist-
ance. The Corriere Mereuutile of Genoa states that the
subscriptions to the Pieilinontese loan have amounted to
double the sum allotted to Piedmont. Many of the sub-
scribers are small landholders, farmer., ani even wirk-
men. General Garibaldi has been appointed a general
of division, and nominated to the command of three
battalions. The emigration f ruin Lombardy to Piedmont
rapidly increases, embracing whole families, cadets of
noble houses, and priests with their flocks. The govern-
ment of Lombardy has in consequence suspended its tra-
velling permits.
In spite of the mystery which surrounds the King of
Naples, it is generally believed that his Majesty's illness
becomes more serious. The chamber of the royal
invalid is closed with care, and no one enters it but the
Queen, the physicians, and four sailors and quarter-
masters of the royal yacht, who act as nurses. Lately
his Majesty underwent an operation on the thigh.
Extraordinary activity mvails in his Majesty's &menet..
A fresh levy of 18,000 men has been ordered for the end
of May. Altogether, during the year ending at the
present thus, 30,000 men have been enlisted.
Tuscany, Milan, and Venice are in a ferment. A
military conspiracy is said to have been discovered in
Parma: the prevalent version of the affair is, that two
companies of Chasseurs and • battalion of the Line had
formed a plan for taking possession of the Palace and of
the War-office. The Paris correspondent of the Augs-
burg Gazette has learned froin French engineers, who are
employed in Turin, that there is to be an "explosion"
in horn on or about the 25th of March, and the same
news as been received from Florence.
The Pope has announced before the Consistory that
he did not claim the fulfilment of the demand for the
evacuation of the Papal States. His only intention was
to prevent a collision of the two Catholic empires in his
own dominions. He had intrusted his destiny to Pro-
videnoe. Orders have been given for public prayers for
the maintenance of peace.

John Allen was indicted for having anninitted
wilful perjury at Plywouth on tho 30th .4 September
but.

Mr. Serjeaut Kinglake and Mr. Coleridge were
counsel for the prosecution, and Mr. Co a defended the
prisoner.
This was a prosecution directed by the Com 11l issioners
of Inland Revenue. The prisoner it appeared was a
cab driver at Plymouth, using a cab which was the pro-
perty of Charles Young ; awl on the ilth of August,
being the day of the Plymouth races, he was standing
near the Lara-hridge, about a mile from the town of
Plymouth. Three Excise officers, named Frood, Horn-
castle, and Welch were retu g Mime, they saw two
Marines and a woman get into the cab or fly. The
prisoner bailed the three officers, and they got upon the
fly. The prisoner drove them into Plymouth. They
asked what the fare was. The prisoner said sixpence I
each, and they paid him the money, And walked away :
but shortly returned and asked him his name and told
bin, they should give notice to his master that he had
been taking fares which he had no right to take, as he
had no license. The case was reported to the CAIIIIIII6.
61011er8 of Inland Revenue, and an information was laid
before the mayor, and the case came on to be beard on
the 30th of September. The three Ritchie officers were
I examined, and stated the fact, awl the payment of the
fares to the primmer. Upon this the prisoner was called
on behalf of Young, the proprietor of the fly, and he
positively swore that the officers had not paid him the
tams, but that he had been paid 3s. by the Marine.
The co 'winners then instituted this prosecution.
These facts having been proved,
Mr. Cox addressegl the jury for the prisoner, urging
that the question WWI 110 t whether the revenue laws
had been infringed, but whether the prisoner had wit.
fully sworn that which was false. The Excise officers
had allow!' a want of uueoiory, and might mod the tin-
sutler have forgotten that theme men had paid Lim ?

On Friday evening week an "Amateur Musical

Till persons (including all the r/itt, of the town 111111

to secure seats amounted to positive exitenwiit,
partly, perhaps, because of the novelty if the enter-
tainment. The arroigements were exeellent anti
gave general satisfaction. The programme was
divided into three parts. In the first part three glees
" Hail Smiling Morn." " Here in rout Ora,"
awl " Mark the Merry Elves," were beautifully
rentlers.4l by Messrs. Garrett, liarnstly, OM. Nlinific,
and cooper (of the Shorborne church choir), the
piano forte accompaniment being rkilfully played by
Mr. Ling, of Sherburne. The third glee received a
well merited encore. Mr. William Roger'', of Myth.
ling, sang a pretty ballad-- -" Do they think of inn at
~,,, c," and he and his friends, Mewing. Phillips awl
Brooks, gave a couple of glees —" The Nininight
Drums" mot " The Fisherman awl his Wife," with
excellent effect. Mr. W. R. Davis, of Corms, sang
"The Friar of Orders (irey," and an Irish song "To
Ask andto Have," with much apirit and h anti
a thiett by Mews. Davis and Rose (beautifully
rendered) completed the first part. The second part
wholly consisted of a reading of " The Trial of
Bardell versus Pickwich," from Dickens, by Mr.
Murky. Although it was his first attempt, and a
novel feature in the entertainment, the reading was
a decided success, awl rivetted the attention of the
audience. The individuality of the different
characters in the piece was well preserved, the
rendering of the speeches of Serjr.ant Ruzfuz elicited
frequent burst of applause, and the witty and

state that a Congress of the great Powers will meet either
at London or Berlin to take into consideration the state
of Italy and the complications to which it has led.
Although we may all have become soinewhat tired of
Congresses, yet there Is no doubt that this solution is
the best under the circumstances—in fact, the only one,
considering how far each of the two Sovereigns prin•
eimilly concerned liu committed himself, and hew cinch
a retreat would detract front the pretensions of either.
The recent conduot of the French and Sardinian Courts
Is not calculated to insure a happier fortim• for Italy,
but we trust that, now the settlement of that unhappy
country has been coinniitted to Europe, the Great
Powers, and especially England and Pruseis, will make
their voices heard in favour of humanity and good

AUSTRIA.

A correspondent of the Daily News writing from
Vienna, says preparations for war continue upon an im-
mense scale. We have force enough and to spare to con-
quer Piedmont in a few days. lam not fond of brogga-
docia, and I have a horror of war, which may bring in
its train such terrible calamities—more especially to
Austria. But you may be well assured that our army is
most ans ions to fight, and if the struggle should begin
before France takes the field, Piedinont will be crushed.
If Fromm hesitates, if her aid be not afforded largely and
at once, the situation may from one moment to another
b: modified by a fail aeronspli. In speaking thus
strongly I only repeat the opinions of sonic of the most
eminent and best informed men here. Moreover, the
language of the Wiener leitstny shows that there is
nothing improbable in such a conjecture. Austria,
instead of listening quietly to threats and ha-
rangues, will take the initiative and demand
guarantees against agitation in Piedmont. In
default of obtaining these guarantees, she is resolved
to make a short end of the business at whatever rialto
herself hereafter. This being so, what hope is there in
diplomacy? None,lisa I think. However, a miracle is
poadble, and nothing short of a miracle can save WI
from war.
