" THE

CORNS.—Of all the minor evils which beset humanity
and in one of its most tender parts, perhaps these small but
exquisitely painful callosities, from which the feet of but
few are free, are the worst. The daintiest foot, if encum-
bered with them, must, perforce, be thrust into an ugly,
because loosely-fitting shoe or boot, thus incurring the risk
of easing one part, and causing a precisely similar incon-
venience in another, while the change from the net shoe or
boot to its lax substitute is productive of an awkward and
inelegant gait. We fancy that any one effectually relieving
the corn-encumbered foot at a moderate charge is deserving
of, and likely to obtain, both popularity and emolument.

ALI.SOP'S WAX WORK EXHIBITION, TEUTONIC-HALL
LIME-sTREZT, LIVERPCOL.—DOVE, THE MURDERER.—The
only correct likeness of this criminal is to be seen at the
above exhibition, and is placed by the side of Palmer. Both
these poisoners are fall-length, and are acknowledged by all
to be perfect likenesses. They are surrounded by upwards
of 100 wax figures, large as life; together with 600 statues,
busts, casts of heads, tie.; also a great number of
Stereoscopic and other views. The proprietor begs to state
that the likeness of Dove and Palmer are most positively
the only true ones taker. Palmer was modelled by Mr.
George Ewing, of London, during his trial at the Old
Bailey; and a sketch of Dove was taken by Mr. John
Storey, of York, and afterwards modelled expressly for Mr.
Alisop, by Mr. William Leland, of Liverpool. Open from
ten, a.m., till ten, p.m. Admission, Sixpence. A quadrille
band in attendance. Observe the name of Allsop's Wax-
work on the two lamps over the entrance.--Adv.
DzATH OF Ma. JOHN WOOD, CHAIRMAN OF THE INLAND
REVENUE Boaan.—We regret to hear of the death of Mr.
John Wood, chairman of the Board of Inland Revenue.
Mr. Wood was an old and most Valued public servant.
He
was elected member for Kendal in the first session of
the Reformed Parliament. He soon
established for himself
11, high character in the House of Commons amongst men of
busieess, and was sbythe Government
Boardovernment to till the
important post of Chairmn of theof Stamps and
Taxes. Upon the oarenlidatikai of that
board with the
Commissioners of Excise, Mr. Wood was appointed chairman
of the united board, which post he filled to the complete
satisfaction of every successive Administration, until his
death on Friday last at Bath, after much suffering, but full
of years and honours. His value was well known to every
one employed in his department, and to all the leading
members of the Government.
SUICIDE OF MR. HARVEY, THE PANTOMIMIST AND BAL.
LET-MASTER.—Mr. William Harvey, the pantomimist and
ballet-master, well-known at many of the London and pro-
vincial theatres, committed suicide by jumping into the sea
from the Helen moregor steam-ship, on her last voyage
from Hamburg to Hull. The unfortunate man had been
fulfiling an engagement at the Tivoli Gardens, Copenhagen,
and while there a misunderstanding arose between him and
another party. Harvey had the offending party taken before
the head of the police at Copenhagen, who reprimanded
him. After this it is said that he swore he would be
revenged upon Harvey, and the latter seems to have
entertained a strong belief that he would carry his threat
into execution. His engagement terminated on the 30th of
September, and he was on his way to Dublin to fulfil an
engagement at tho Queen's Theatre. The deceased left
several papers which he had written on board the ship, and
which showed a most determined intention of committing
self-destruction, at the same time it is evident that his mind
was in a disturbed state. He was in his 45th year, and has
left a wife and two children.
