"A NOVEL INKSTAND. —A new and very ingenious inkstand has
been submitted to our notice; by a simple but ingenious contrivance
the ink is always kept clear and fluid:"—Northampton Mercury.—

CABE AND DEED Boxne.—The next important thing to the posses-
sion of cash is, how (when you have got it) to keep it safely, either ha
the counting-house or at home. The same remarks apply to deeds
and other valuable documents. We have seen a large and varied
stock of both these desirable arthaes, manufactured expressly for Mr.
E. T. Hall, of South. John-street, that challenge attention. These
bozes are made on new and admired principles, and possess patent
lochs, which defy the ingenuity of any "pick-lock" in the world to
open, except with the legitimate key. To merchants, solicitors, and
others, these new safes, on a sneall scale, must prove valuable alleed
—Northern Daily 215:.! Nay, 1887.
Tus CALIF,MNIAN Pau.—The everlasting question "lathis
good pen" has been answered by Mr. E. T. Hall, of South John
street, who has succeeded in twoducing a metallic pen, which he
designates, not inaptly, as above. There is hardly anything more
annoying than a had 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 greateetvatua, it does not corrode, but will work with
equal facility in any int., From experience of metaric pens, we can.
say that this one, which Is polished as gold, and will last nearly as
long, ia the best:cne we have ever used,—ATortkrn Times. One
box,'-containing six dozen pens, sent free on receipt of 2s 6d in
postar-e stamps. Agents wanted for the country.—Adv.
INFORMATIO-N, RESPECTING CANADA.—The Canadian Governmen
has published an interesting pamphlet on the resources of Canadat
and the prospects in store for the industrious of all classes who desire
to emigrate there. It has been gratuitcusly circulated throughout
the United Kingdom, together 'with the two lectures upon Canada.
delivered by Mr. Rollo Campbell, of Montreal, in January last. Every
clergyman in Scotland has been supplied with a copy of both, togethe
with the particulars of the Grand T:unk system of Through Booking
and a Map of Canada, 'limn which all the Railways and their connec-
tion with the United States are shown. These, and other documents,
continue to be issued gratuitously to all persons who apply for them,
either personally or by letter, at the offices of the Grand Trunk Rail-
way Company, 21, Old Broad-street, London, E.O
A LIVERPOOL BOON EXTENDED TO LONDON AND MANO‘IESTER.—
Many of the dwellers in those two densely populated cities will no
doubt hail with gladness the gratifying intelligence of having placed
nithin their reach, among otter domestic comforts, "the long looket
for 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, flies,
and other noxious vermin, with ease, Beet 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, wo feel assured their introduction to London and
Manchester will there be esteemed a boon like to what th 'y have been
in Liverpool, where, happily, their discovery first originated. It will
be seen from our advertising columns, that Mr. John L. Slevens, 86.
Tower Hill, London, is the appointed agent for London, and adjacent
counties, and Mr. George Westmacott, chemist. 4, Market Street,
m"enaiter, is the appointed agent for that city, of whom may be had
Mr. Greer's infallible preparations for the extinction of vermin of every
description without danger to any cf the higher order of animals.
Beth these appointments will save to our London and Manchester
f iends, the trouble and inconvenience of sendine for supplies to
Liverpool—See
