WONDERFUL DISCOVERY.

GOUT effectually cured by a simple LOTION.
Di. R. D. MtMANUS, Surgeon, 193, High Holborn, (after many
years' research) has discovered a Lotion, by Which he efftually
cures the Rheumatism and the Rheumatic Gout, even in its last and
most aggravated forms ; and so confident is he of its success, that
be requires no remun eratien for consulting him unless a cure be
effected.
This Lotion, simple in its composition, but magical in its effec's,
requires to be applied only three or four times, when it soothes the
suffering patient, subdues inflammation, eradicates every vestige
of thequillity. complaint, Ind leaves the patient in a state of happy

It was said at the Clubs yesterday that Sir John
Conroy had resigned his situation in the household of
her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent. No reason was
assigned.—Morning Post.
IMPORTANT DISCOVERY.--Considerable sen-
sation, among the bakers in the city of Edinburgh, has pre-
vailed for some weeks past, in consequence of the discovery
of an article possessing all the valuable qualities of the best
wheat, and of a much cheaper cost. The article in ques-
tion has been long known to the Faculty generally, as pos-
sessing the most nutritious qualities, and, therefore, much
recommended in cases of indigestion, in assisting the
constitution in regaininr, its energy, after fever, or severe
illness have been subdued. It is a Chinese vegetable
production, collected by the natives, and by them taken
in junks orboats, in its natural state, to Singapore, where
it is manufactured into the state in which it arrives in
this country, and known as an article of commerce called
Sago. Within the last few months, in consequence of
the dearness of corn, and sego being at an exceedingly
low price, experiments were made in trying it as an article
of food for calves, pigs, horses, and dogs, all of which
were found to thrive upon it to an astonishing degree.
Whilst it had the effect of fattening calves and pigs, and
producing molt delicious meat, horses and dogs it put
into a most beautiful condition ; and it is well known in
the sporting world, that some dogs, fed upon sago alone,
accomplished feats perfectly surprising. Answering so
well these purposes, a series of experiments were made as
to its applicability of being made into bread; and these
have become so successful, that the celebrated Dr. An-
drew Combe, of Edinburgh, states, " that it is as light,
digestible, and palatable as any bread be ever tasted, and
entirely free from the least tendency to sourness, even at
the end of four days of mild weather, which would not
have been the case with the ordinary bread at the end of
forty-eight hours." lie also observes, " it being easy of
digestion in the stomach, affords a presumption that it will
be well suited to the bowels also. It appears the bread
in question is composed of three-fourths of wheaten flour,
and one-fourth of fine sago, and which enables the baker
to make a much better loaf at a cheaper rate. The baker
who first introduced this bread, after its quality had borne
the test of public opinion, hhd upwards of five thousand
applicants in one day, and the Edinburgh papers are now
teeming with advertisements from all the respectable
bakers of " Sago Bread," " Sago Rolls," and " Sago
Buns." The present market price of sago is about 21s.

The sudden departure of a Noble Marquis, an
elder son, for the Continent, is the subject of much discus-
sion. We believe an alliance, where the connection is
already very near, is not thought desirable by the Duke,
who, of course, is the best judge in the case of matrimony.

The late Sergeant-Major Shepherd's widow is
not dead as generally reported by the newspapers of
Thursday, but she still remains confined to her bed in a ele-
carious state. The whole of the Royal Artillery and En-
gineers have voluntarily offered a day's pay towards the
support of the poor bereaved woman and her infant children,
and the Royal Sappers and Miners have gone still further
in their charitable commiseration, for they have contributed
even their working pay towards the fund.
