This Institution is designed to supply a great national
want, viz., an asylum for the orphan daughters of sailors in
the Royal Navy and Merchants Service and of Marines.
It clothes, maintains, and educates them for domestic
service. and provides a home free of expense .for former
inmates while out of situations, thus shielding them from the
temptations they might otherwise be exposed to.
The Committee earnestly APPEAL for CONTRIBU-
TIONS to meet the increasing applications through the
recent storms and loss f life at sea, and t o enable them
eventually to obtain premises more commensurate with the
necessities of this great maritime country, which loses 2,000
sailors annually by casualties alone, without including those
who may perish by war.
Subscriptions thankfully received by the bankers, Messrs
Barclay, Bevan, and Co., Lombard-street, and by the Secre-
tary, at the Offices, No. 77,

THE CASE OF THE QUAKER FINED AT LIVERPOOL.
—ln the case of the Quaker fined for keeping his
hat on in the Liverpool assize court, the name of Mr. Jus-
tice Smith was by mistake substituted for that of Mr. Baron
Bramwell. It was the learned baron who reproved Mr.
Carson, the Quaker. Mr. Carson was called upon yester-
day, and appeared before the judge uncovered. Mr. Baron
Bramwell said that if Mr. Carson had refused to act as 'a
juryman, or had behaved with disrespect, he ought to be
fined. Ile (the learned judge), however, should remit the
fine ; and, after considering the matter, he had come to
the conclusion that if Mr. Carson's conscience told him he
ought not to remove his hat, there was nothing intrinsically
disrespectful in it, and that Mr. Carson might, therefore,
if he chose, resume his hat.

EADVERTISEMENT.7I—HoIIoway's Pills and Ointment.—
Biliousness, Dyspepsia.—T here is no organ in the human
body so liable to derangement as the liver. Food, fatigue,
climate, and anxiety, all disorder its action and render its
secretion, the bile, more or less depraved, superabundant,
or scanty. The first symptoms should receive attention.
A pain in the side or the top of the shoulder, a harsh cough
and difficulty of breathing, are signs of liver disease, which
are removed without delay by friction with Holloway's in-
estimable ointment. The pills should also be taken early.
For all diseases of this vital organ the action of these con-
joined remedies is a specific, by checking the over supply
of bile, regulating its secretion, and giving nervous tone.
