TRH CALIFort MAN PRIL—The everlasting quest'on f "is this
good pen" has been answered by Mr. F. T. Hall, of South John
s,re,t, who has succeeded in roducing a metallic pen, which he
designates, not inaptly, as above. There is hardly anything move
annoying than a had pen—every one knows the mbery. The Tien
made by Mr. Hall, is tit 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 hest one we have ever used,—Northern Times. One
box, containing six dozen pens, sent free on receipt of 2s 6d in

131109.—0ne of the greatest domestic nuisances, especially in the'
spring and summer of the year, is the prevalence of bags. Many
means have been tried to prevent or exterm•nate them, but all
hitherto ineffectually. Cleanliness may check, but cannot eradicate
them. Mr. It. Greer, late one of the Liverpool sanitary officials,
after intense study and deep research with many practical exptri-
meats, in the usual pursuit of his official avocation, has at length
discovered the great decide atum, " Greer's Pa'ent Anti-Bug Lotion,"
is an unfailing exterminator of bugs, fleas, &c. It is clean, simple
in application, agreeable in smell. and perfectly innoxious save to
Insects. To be had at the Ant•-Vermin Office, 49, Brownlow-hill,
Liverpool. in bottles at Is. 2s. and 4s each.—Adct.

In Re OLD NEWSPAPERS.—What a sucked orange is a read news-
paper ; what an undiscovered country is an anread one. Yon take
it up with the expcctancy of an epicurean, and you fling it down, ail

without that high spiced morning cap to wash his eyes withal, or
mingle equally amongst his fellows, unpost:d up to the last mieues
in all the busy world's histories? For a newspaper has well been
called " The:histo y of the world to-day;" and every body recoguises
it as t great necessity of civilised existence. I always give away

'I RE LAST EXPEDIENT.—The New York Tribune gives, from New

pardon-forger:—"'l he case of Scatchard, charged with having made

grows quite interesting as the examination preceeds. His project,
as revealed to Mr. Charles I. Kane, of Wall street, and others, to
whom he applied for pecuniary assietarce to clrry it out, was bold,
original, and by no means impracticable. He ;said that his skill as a
