Boos.—One of the greatest domestic rulsances, especially in the
spring and summer of the year, is the prevalence of bugs. Many
means have been tried to prevent or externs-nate them, but all
hitherto ineffectually. Cleanliness may check, but cannot eradicate
them. Mr. R. Greer, late one of the Liverpool sanitary officials,
after intense study and deep research with many practical experi-
ments, in the usual pursuit of his official avocation, has at length
discovered the great desn'e •atutn, " Greer's Patent Anti-BugLotion."
is an unfailing exterminator of hugs, fleas, &c. It ;s clean, simple
in application, agreeable in smell, and perfectly innoxious save to
insects. To be had at the Anti-Vermin Office, 49, Brownlow-hill,
Liverpool, in bottles at he, 2s. and 4s each.—Adet.
"A Novas. ImisrAwo.—Anew and very ingenioss inkstand has
gen submitted to our notice; be a simp'e but ingenious contrivance,
the ink is always kept clear and finid.a—Northampton Mercury.—
Sold at is 8d 236 d, and ss 6d each.—Adtit.
'run CALtvoarsiass PEN.—The everl.:sti..g quest'en f "is this
good pen" has been answered by Mr. E. T. Hall, of South John
stre-t, who has succeeded in iireducina 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 band 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,—Northern Times. One
box, containing six dozen pens, sent fret on receipt of 2s 6d in
postage stamps. Agents wanted tor the country.—Adv.
AN INCIDENT OF BALEKLLTA,—When the f,Light Brigade was
preparing for action, the butcher of the 17th Lancers, who had Slut
been performing his office, slaughtering sheep and oxen, made hi
appearance in the field, without coat or waistcoat, his shirt s'etsves
rolled up, and his arms and faco smeared with blood—a grotesque and
terrible figure. He mounted a powerful charger and rode np t, his
troop. He bad no business three, but the prospect of a bloody fray
was too strong to be resisted. Ha seized two sabres, deliberately
exam rued the temper and edges of the blades, selected the sharpest,
and threw the other aside. He then, with eqnal coolness, took out a
short black pipe, charged it, lighted it, placed it in his mouth, and,
settling himself on the saddle, rode with the " six hundred'.' into the
Valley of the Shadow of Death. This man was seen amongst the
Russian batteries, sahreinz the Villiers right and left, slaying with
his own hand at least six of the enemy, cutting hisavay in the retreat
through the swarms of Russian cavalry which vainly sought to inter-
cept ti .e remnant of the gallant band, and, •wonderful to relate, he
rode back, dill smooking his pipe as coolly as ff nothing had happened
without haVing received a single scratch,
