A MAN IMPALED.—At the latter end of last week a
man named Davis, a carpenter by trade, was at work on
the roof of a warehouse at Devizes, hen a ladder he
was using slipped, and he was thrown first on the poles
of the scaffolding, and thence to some iron-spiked rail-
ings below, on the top of which he was so firmly fixed
that it required six men to remove him. One of the
spikes passed through his hand, and others through dif-
ferent parts of his body to the depth of two or three
inches. The poor fellow was carried home in excruciating
pain, but hopes are now entertained of his recovery"
A ROYAL DODGE.—The Literary Gazette says that,
the musical performers who -receive brooches and rings'
from the Czar are able, without impropriety, to turn
them into money, his Majesty havingr, instituted in his
household an officer whose special duty it is to buy
back, at the full price, all the preients he offers. Thus
"in Russia there are certain rings, brooches, bracelets,
and snuff-boxes, which have been given away times
without number." .

[ADVEItTISEMENT.I—HoIIoway's Ointment and Pills
are superior remedies for the cure of erysipelas.--Mr.
William Parsons, of St. George's, Pill, near Bristol, was
afflicted for upwards of two years with erysipelas i 8 his
legs, so bad at times as to lay him up for a month toge-
ther ; the medical aid he received, besides a weekly at-
tendance at the Bristol Infirmary, had no good effect
whatever in the disease, consequently he determined on
giving Holloway's Ointment and Pills a trial, and they
have been the means of effecting a radical cure of his •
legs in an almost unprecedented short time.— -Sold by
