them. My horses are always healthy and workable. I can confidently recommend them to any one keeping

AUGUST 1874.
DEAR SIR,—I cab strongly recommend your Pectorine
as an invaluable Corgh Remedy. I have given it a fair
trial in my own family, and have also supplied it to per-
sons suffering from Cough in my parish, and in every
instance it has given immediate relief. In some eases,
after passing slet pleas nights, one or two doses of the
Pectorine have had such ii good effect that persons have
got a good night's rest, and the Cough has speedily dis-
appeared.
Mr. A. Rolfe, St. Anne's Square, Man-
chester,
Says : " Your Pectorine is superior to any Medicine I
have ever tried for Coughs or Colds."
PECTORINE cures the worst forms of Coughs and Colds
PECTORINE cures Hoarseness
PECTORINE gives immediate relief in Bronchitis
PECTORINE is the best Medicine for Asthma
PE CTORINE cures Whooping Cough
PECTORINE will cure a troublesome tickling Cough
PECTOBINE is invaluable in the Early Stages of
Consumption
PECTORINE relieves all Affections of the Chest, Lungs,
and Throat.

injunction, with costs, against F. Mason, Chemist,

It appears from the Report of the Postmaster-
General just issued that, in relation to the lamentable acci-

infant, were all born at the royal palace Greenwich.
Bull was originally the name of the bell-shaped,
leaden seal annexed to letters from the Emperor or the
Pope; it is now applied exclusively to documents issued in
the name of the Holy See. The seal bears the image of St.
Peter and St. Paul on one side, and on the other the name of
the reigning Pope.
It is shown by a Parliamentary Blue-book recently

panies for personal injuries in the United Kingdom, and
051,293 for damage to goods, &c. In the preceding year the
amount for personal injuries was £364,509, and to goods, &c.,

The Yorkshire Exhibition at Leeds, which was
opened by the Duke of Edinburgh on the•l3th of May, closed
on Saturday evening the 30th ult. The receipts have been
£30,000, and have exceeded the expenditure by £lO,OOO.
This profit will be applied to liquidate the debt upon the
Mechanics' Institution. There have been 635,000 visitors to
the Exhibition.
An interesting antecieluvian relic was lately un-
earthed in New York State. Professor Comstock, of Cornell
University, with his assistants, has exhumed the skeleton of
a Mastodon discovered at Lisle. They have taken out one
piece of a tusk seven feet three inches in length, and two
others; a humerus 38 inches long, a hyiod 49 inches long,
and 21 shorter ribs the atlas, 10 by 17 inches, and several tail
vertebras. The skeleton is well preserved.
The Prefect of the Seine has caused placards to be
posted on the walls of Paris with the heading: "Reading
and Writing Compulsory." The conscripts of the last two
levies are warned in this proclamation that should they
prove illiterate on joining the standard, they will have to
remain under arms a whole twelvemonth beyond the ordi-
nary term of service, there being no time other than for mili-
tary drill in the course of the first year.
On and after next Monday, the Bth of November, no
prepayment in money of the postage of letters for the colo-
nies or foreign States will be permitted. Postage stamps to
the required amount must be affixed to every such letter, in
compliance with one of the provisions of the Postal Union
Treaty, and in order to prevent prepaid letters from being
treated and charged as unpaid letters when they arrive at
their destination.
If nine hundred millions fourteen thousand penny
postage stamps have been issued this year, what was their
value in pounds, shillings, and pence? This was one of the
questions put in the competition for scholarships in connec-
tion with the Liverpool Council of Education. Another was

In London, on Monday, the report of the Distribu-
tion Committee of the 31etropolitan Hospital Sunday Fund
was laid before the Council at the Mansion House, Sir Sydney
Waterlow, M.P., in the chair. The namber of establishments
applying for a share in the fund was 121; and the Committee
recommended that £,22,945 be granted to seventy general and
special hospitals and out institutions, and £,2,531 to forty-
seven dispensaries. -The motion for the acceptance of the
report was adopted, and the awards were ordered to be paid.
"The Alfonsist and Carlist authorities in the great
wine district of the Rioja have shown a most uncommon
amount of good sense. Seeing the extensive vineyards lying
between their lines in the neighbourhood of Ilaro wasting
day by day before their eyes, they came to the determina-
tion that a suspension of hostilities from sunrise to sunset
for a few days would be a prudent course to agree to. The
consequence has been the gathering in of the grape harvest
to mutual satisfaction, the soldiers on both sides lending
hearty assistance to the peasantry in the peaceful operation."
