RESTORATION OF ELY CATHEDRAL.—It gives us
much pleasure to report progress on the subject of tee
d,corative restorations which are rapidly transforming
into a " thing of beauty" the magnificent edifice which
constitutes the chief glory of our inland isle. The fide
lewing facts will be highly sa isfactory to our readers:--
I he glass for tt,e bishop's lessees' window is now in the
north triforium, and will be fixed in the eighth transept as
soon as the repairs are completed. The incumbents of
he hugs in the patronage and diocese of the Bishop of Ely
have opened a subscription for a window in the south
transept ; end the incumbents of livings in his Lordship's
patron ,ge, but not in the diocese, have undertaken the
fourth Norman window. The glass for both is or-
dered of M. Gerente, so that all the Normal
windows in the eighth transept will be his work. The
t unds are not yet sufficient to pay for the glass, but it is
to be hoped that those gentlemen who have not Set ex"
pressed their intention of subscribing will come forvvar'.
Mr. Warrington, the artist, has promised a window in
the south aisle. The Rev. Chancellor Sparke has also
promised a window, and there are subscriptions for a
visitors' window and an ordination window. There
are also reports of other subscriptions. The gentleman
to whom we are indebted for communicating these
facts says that if a fen' energetic friends would form
committee, and undertake the work, another large lan-
tern window might be filled by the Masters of Arts. it
very small sum—not more than 11., or even 105.—would
he quite sufficient to procure funds for the purpose.
There would then be only one window left, which might
be filled by the noblemen or doctors ; and
then this splendid part of the magnificent
cathedral would be complete. We have only to add
that the Dean of Ely's and Mr. Coolie's windows for the
south-west transept are being prepared by Mr. Wailes,
to whom the cathedral is indebted for the glass in tee
south aisle, containing the history of St. Bede. Mr.
Wades has been again to the Continent, expressly for
the purpose of examining the glass of the 13th century.
We hope that a mere hint is sufficient to provoke too
laudable co-operation, and even to create considerable
rivalry and emulation in contributing to this work.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—A Bruised Foot Cured, and
Amputation of the Tues prevented by Holloway's Oint"
went and Pills.—Mr. Oliver Smith Jenkins, of Falkirk-
when superintending the erection of a railway bride
had his toot severely bruised by the falling of a heavY,
stone. Apprehending that serious consequences would
result from it, he consulted some of the most eminent
surgeons in Edinburgh, who informed him that to effect
a cure two of his toes must be amputated ; refusing I°,
submit to this he returned to Falkirk, and commenced
using Holloway's Ointment and Pills, and, miraculous
as it may appear, these invaluable medicines healed his
foot, and in three weeks he was enabled to resume his
employment.—Sold by all Druggists, and at Professor
Holloway's Establishment, 244, Strand, London.
A RECKLESS DRUNKARD.—A man named Ales'
ander Anderson was brought up at the Borough Omni
on Saturday, on the charge of not maintaining his child.
It appeared that he was a plasterer, and able to get
work. A few weeks since his wife lay dangerously ,
and instead of attending to her wants, he went home
night after night in a beastly state of intoxication. Phti
two or three occasions he drank all the brandy whic':
the hospital doctor had sent for his wife, while she lc%
in aalying state. She died shortly afterwards; but tbi:
made no impression upon him, and he even went so is;
as to abuse his brother for attending to the poor woroaa
n.
and her infant. At her death the child was thrown or-t

caring in the least for it, but continuing in a state o,a
constant intoxication as before. The neighbours (1!,,,
much for the infant; but on Wednesday last it died, its
all probability through want of care and nourishroeil.t7
:
and the relieving officer of the district had to bury
The charge against the prisoner was, therefore, for r%,.

when dead. Anderson begged of the magistrates to ie;

THE WEATHER.—The severe frost which col!:
menced at the beginning of last week relented on 6'1%
, day evening. On Friday morning the surface of
portion of the island was covered with snow,
.which CO
•
tinued to fall occasionally till Saturday evening. u!'
Sunday it was two inches in depth. Monday brought!!
thaw, and a heavy and continuous rain, wbioh rapid IY,„
melted the snow; and yesterday the earth, emergit.l,!
from its temporary covering, and illuminated by a brP'_
liant sun, had quite a vernal appearance. The bretio,
, was so fresh that we looked for snowdrops and crocuses
, among the grass; but we fear that there is yet a winter
to intervene before spring appears.—Cambridge Adv. ‘,O
ATTEMPT TO MURDER A GAMEKEEPIIR.---
Thursday night last the under gamekeeper of Mr. List%
of Broseley, named Archelteus Dodd went out to wiltd
in the preserves at Benthall, &c., near BroseleY,e° "
shortly after he had gone he perceived he was dodg:a
three men, who, no doubt, if an opportunity had occurred
I would have murdered him in a very large wood calla.
Benthall Edge, but it is supposed that no such oPnereePit.
nity presented itself for carrying their design into el' rg,
Some tme afterwards the men were observed to P5lO
and as Dodd was returning home about two o'clock t.
I the morning, near a plantation on the confines of Pe 0,
hall parish, he was deliberately shot at from °ero
we°
low wall, by one of the three men, it is supposed, ads
had followed him. The ruffian was within a few 9:0
of Dodd, and the shots entered the front part °I out
hat, about two inches below the crown, and pasSeu tee
at the back of the same, fortunately without doing re.
keeper any injury. Dodd stumbled, but speedafe.
covered himself, and saw the man running awaY.
Lister has offered a reward of 501. for the apprebolo3,
of the man, and a search warrant having been Os es's
• we hope to hear of his speedy capture. Baal°
