TO MESSRS. ROWLAND AND SON, 20, HAT-
TON-GARDEN, LONDON. —" GENTLEMEN,—I have been
prevailed upon by a friend to try your Macassar Oil, and
have, indeed, found -it of amazing benefit in my family.
Four of my children, a few years ago, were ill with the
scarlet fever, and until about three months since, there was
not the least appearance of hair upon their heads. The
medical gentlemen who attended them gave no hopes of it
ever returning ; but, after using 3 our Macassar Oil, a short
time, I found, to my great delight, their heads covered
with short, strong hair, which is now daily improving.
You are at liberty to make whatever use you please of this
letter to your advantage ; as I live in the country, I have
taken the present opportunity of conveying it by a friend
to you. I am, gentlemen, your humble servant, Janet
Smith. Ottringham, Yorkshire, June 9th." Rowland's
Macassar Oil, is the only article that really produces and
restores the Hair ; also, Whiskers, Mustachios, Eyebrows,
&c. ; prevents Hair from falling off or turning grey;
changes grey hair to its original colour ; frees it from scurf
and daudriff, and makes it beautifully soft and curly.
Notice.—The lowest price is 3s. 6d., the next price is
70., 10s. 6d , and 21s. per bottle. Ask for " Rowland's
Macassar Oil."

Eight inhabitants of this town dined together
last week at the Grenville Arms, whose united ages
amounted to 572 years.—Brigkon Guardian.
THE LONDON AND BRIGHTON RAILWAY.—
The works both at I3alcombe and at Clayton have been
stopped for several days in consequence of the springs
being out. There are, we hear, from 50 to 60 feet of
water in the Balcombe shaft, and from 20 to 30 feet in the
Clayton shaft. Indeed we have heard that a very grave
doubt exists whether the line must not be altogether di-
verted to avoid these dropsical hills. We understand that
a gentleman was recently down from London to view and
inspect these spots, who declared that the symptoms were
more formidable than those which were the cause of so
much expense and delay on the Great Western line.—
Brighton Guardian.
MURDER BY A LUNATIC.—A pauper lunatic
named Isabella Folion, was tried at Carlisle Assizes on
Thursday, charged with the murder of Jean Reay, in the
worahouse at Dearham, in the latter part of last September
It appeared that the prisoner, the deceased, and other per.
sons were in a room together, when the prisoner suddenly
took a large sharp clasp-knife, which had been used to
peel some potatoes, and, before she could be prevented by
any one present, so nearly severed the head of the unfor-
tunate old woman from her body that it hung only by ft
small piece of skin. The consequence, of course, was in-
stant death. The Jury brought in a verdict of insanity,
and the prisoner will be confined during her Majesty's
pleasure.
