INCENDIARY FlRES.—Attempts to fire warehouses

of lucifer matches was found to have been ignited and
pushed under the door of Mr. Wm. Evans, drysalter,
Cromford-court, Deansgate, but, not coming in contact
with other combustible matter, they had burnt out after
the brimstone or composition at the ends had been con-
sumed. A. similar attempt is said to have been made at
another warehouse during Saturday night or Sunday,
without serious consequences.
THE POST•OFFICE TRANSPORT. The Post-office
transport has followed us to Balaklava, .evidently
for the purpose of taking off the army letters for the
next mail. This is very attentive, since it enables officers
and men to write home; but it would be quite as satis-
factory if officers and men got the letters and news-
papers which are sent to them from home. But so awful
is the confusion on board the Post-office transport, that
letters can reach their right owners only by special
miracles. The Post-office clerks despair of their ability
of sorting the letters and papers, and so sit down de-
spondingly and in a state of extreme lassitude and lazi-
ness. The letters, some of the bags unopened, others
opened and their contents strewn about the floor, kick
about the cabin, and the newspapers, sometimes of two
or three mails, old and new, have a temporary asylum on
deck. Naval and military officers now and then recover
letters and papers for themselves and their friends by
passing some hours on board the Post-office transport,
turning over the heaps of letters and papers ; but small
is the chance of those who cannot go on board, or have
not energetic and persevering friends that take it upon
themselves to act as letter-sorters. What becomes of
the odd letters at last it is difficult to say join all
charitable souls in hoping that they are not used up as
waste paper, but that after weeks er mouths chance or
accident will bring them to the hands of the rightful
owners.--Daily Nem

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—Holloway's Ointment and Pills,
extraordinary Medicines for the Cure of Bad Legs.—
Mr. Woe. Hill, of Exeter, had for upwards of three
years an ulcerated leg of a most fearful description,
which defied the best medical skill to heal, having been
in Gny's Hospital, King's College, and the Devon and
Exeter Hospitals. Each pronounced it incurable, and the
only remedy he could obtain would be to have it ampu-
tated ; notwithstanding these opinions he made a trial
of Holloway's Ointment and Pills, which effected more
good in a few days than all the treatment he had here•
f §re received, and guherluantly the ;,,,,undg on ilir
leg were completely healed. Sold by all vendors of
medicine, and at Professor Holloway's establighments,
244, Straiad, Loudon;.• and 80, Maiden-lane, New
York.
