Tars CALivoRNI Psx.—The everlasting question of "is this
good pen" has been answered by Mr. E. T. Hall, of South John
street, who has succeeded in tiroducing a metallic pen, which he
designates, not inaptly, as above. There is hardly anything more
annoying than a bad pen—every one knows the misery. The pen
made by Mr. Hall, is fit for any hand to use (light or_heavy), and
what is of the greatest value, it does not corrode, but will work with
equal facility in any ink. From experience of metallic pens, we can
say that this one, which is polished as gold, and will last nearly as
long, is the best one we have ever used.—Norther: Times. One
box, containing six dozen pens, sent free on receipt, of 2s 6d in
postare stamps. Agents wanted for the country.—Ado.
TUE rNE TMING IVANTIN3.—A correspondent writes :—" Now,
that we have hsd the Ft ivington water for some weeks, and as there
seems no chance of getting rid of it, it behoves us to search for the
remedy to Improve this water. Fearing illness, and bearing in mind
the well-known axiom that ' prevention is bolter than cure,' it is
gratifying ha learn that, in this age of science and improvement, we
have in this tors the one thing necessary for tae preservation of our
healths. To Messrs. Saunders and Co., only, we are indebted for. the
best tile's that can be made, removing all impurities, and, by their
recently improved deodorisers. actually removing all the colour, and
producing from the Rivington water a remarkably brilliant and clear,
sparkling beverage." We earnestly recommend our readers to an
inspection of Messrs. Saunders and Co.'s filter warehouse, Parker-
street, Liverpool.
A. Lives POOL BOON ExTRIQED TO LONDON AND MANCHESTER.—
Many of the dwellers in those two dense's, populated cities will no
doubt hail with gladness the gratifying intelligence of having placed
within their reach, among otner domestic comforts, "the long 'wake
far come at last," in the means of securing to themselves the
complete eradication of, and fortification against all obtrusive enemies
and domestic pests, such as rats, mice, bugs, fleas, files, blackbeetles,
and other noxious vermin, with ease, safety, and cheapness. The
supply of means will emanate from the Anti-Vermin Office in this
town, and what with our own experience, after a fair trial, and the
united testimony of others as to the real utility of Mr Greer's Anti-
Vermin preparations, we feel assured their introduction to London and
Manchester will there be esteemed a boon like to what they have been
in Liverpool, where, hapsily, their discovery first originated. It 'will
be seen from our advertising columns, that Mr. John L. S revens, 86.
Tower Hill, London, is the appointed agent for London, and adjacent
caunties, and Mr. George Westmacott, chemist. 4, Market Street,
Manchester, is the appointed agent for that city, of whom may be had
Mr. Greer's infallible preparations for the extinction ofvermin of every
description without danger to aey of the higtier order of animals.
Both these appointments will save to our London and Manchester
friends, the trouble and inconvenience of sending for supplies to
Liverpool—See Advt.

nearly double the distance. and requires from 12 to 15 days. with five
or six changes of Steam. Boats, during all of which they are exposed
to the arts and machinations of designing persons, whose sole means
of living is by their plunder. The Steam Boats, especially when
