[ADTERTISEMENT.J—Ringworms, Scorbutic Affec-
tions, and other Skin Diseases, Curable by Holloway's
Ointment and Pills.—ln the East Indies, diseases of the
skin are very prevalent among the natives, and Hollo-
way's Ointment and Pills have been most sucessfully
used in a variety of cases. The Editor of the Mofussilite
instances that of a Coolie employed in his establishment,
who was " afflicted with myriads of Ringworms which
defied all the Meerut doctors, and promised to devour
the poor man, before he was even under ground." Hol-
loway's Pills and Ointment were then tried, and in a
month he was perfectly restored to his former healthly
condition and cleanliness of skin. Sold by all Druggists,
and at Professor Holloway's Establishment, 244, Strand,
London.

AN AFFECTING SCENE.—One of the sufferers in
the Caledonian accident on Saturday night last, when
brought up to the Citadel Station in the luggage train, was
placed on a chair in the refreshment room. A limb had
been torn off the poor man's body, and the fortitude with
which he bore his dreadful loss excited general sympathy
and admiration. Looking down with an air of the deepest
resignation he exclaimed, " Where's my foot ?" The by-
standers, who had been regarding the poor fellow with a
melancholy interest, burst into tears. About ten hours after
that we saw the severed limb, still clothed with the shoe and
stocking, taken out from a heap of shattered carriages, drip-
ping with blood.—Carlisle Patriot.
