PETROLEUM—This new:article of commerce has
now become better known, and its properties are
duly appreciated. At first a serious opposition was got up
to its introduction and sale, on account of its inflammable
nature; but proper precautionary measures for its storage
on a lone island in the Elbe (where large warehouses have
been built on purpose) having been taken by the executive
authorities, the danger is reduced to a minimum, a regular
trade established, and the article quoted in the Official Price
Current published by the Board of Trade.—Oil Trade Be-
view.

A GENEROUS ACT.—An accident in the field, at•
tended by an act of unparalleled generosity, has
recently occurred in the neighbourhood of Redisharep
Suffolk. A few days since Mr. J. L. Gordon,of Redisham•
hall, was shooting in a plantation on his estate, accom-
panied by two Polish noblemen, Prince Radziwill and
Count Poloweski. The game had been driven up to a
corner of the wood, a thick hedge separating it from the
fields. A boy named Walter Birch, who was acting as
brusher, had been stationed on the other side of the fence,
and, seeing a rabbit running towards him from the wood
stooped to be in readiness to prevent it. At the same rao
ment Count Poloweski fired at the rabbit, and a portion of
the charge, penetrating the brushwood, was lodged in the
boy's body. On removing the clothes it was found that
the extent of his injuries were only three slight flesh
wounds. The boy was immediately taken to his house
and before returning from the sport Count Polowesk
visited him and gave him £3OO in six £5O notes. The
Count also promised that if, when the lad recovered, 110
liked to enter his service, he would give him £6O a year for
life.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—HoIIoway's Ointment and Pills.
Effects of Cold.—ln many periods of the year almost ever,'
current of air is pregnant with sore throats, influenza, 04
a similar host of disorders. All may be readily subdued
by rubbing Holloway's ointment externally over the
affected parts, which quickly penetrates any diseased or dis-
ordered part of the body ; and whatever or wherever the
seat or nature of the malady may be, searches out its cause,
and safely effects the precise remedial action required, with•
out weakening the system, or leaving behind any particle of
the disease. Holloway's pills greatly assist this curative
action. The sick of all nations have voluntarily borne tes'
timony to the extraordinary cures performed by thes me'
dicaments,
