REMARKABLE CASE of RESTORATION.
A striking instance of the power of scientific art to remedy
the defects of nature has lately occurred in the case of a Mr. F. Balls,
a gentlemanresiding at Northam, in Norfolk, who, in the year 1842,
on returning from liarlestone Market to Weybred, where he then re-
sided, sustained so severe a fall from his horse, as to bring on an ill-
mess of several months' duration, during which period his hair con-
kinued to come off, till he became, to use his own terms, " as perfectly
bald as if his head bad been shaved ;" and the Rev. J. E. Daniel,
then clergyman of the parish, offered him a wig as a substitute for
his lost hair. Under these circumstances, he was induced to try the
effect of ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL, and it is highly gratifying
to add, with the most happy results. As soon as part of a bottle was
used the growth recommenced, and he has now to boast of a very
thick and luxuriant head of hair, which presents this peculiarity,
that, though prior to losing his hair it evinced no tendency to curl,
the new growth is curly and strong. This fact speaks too strongly
for itself to require observation.—Bell's Messenger.
*,• Beware of " Spurious Imitations !—The genuine article has
the words " ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL " on the wrapper.

Price 3s. W.—Th.—Family Bottles (equal to four small), lOs. 6d.;
and double that size, 21s. per Bottle.
Sold by the Proprietors, at 20, Hatton-garden, London; and by al
Chemists and Pertiners.

MONEY MAREET.—The premium on gold at Paris
is 21 per mile, which, at the English Mint price of3/.1.,:
1014 d. per ounce for standard .gold, gives an exchange .
25.68 ; and the exchange at Paris on London at short
being
25.57 k, it follows that gold is 0.75 per cent. dearer in London
than in Paris. By advices from Hamburg!' the price of gel
is 437 k per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 1 S.
10 4d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of
13.111 ; and the exchange at Harnburgh on London at short
being 13.11 i, it follows that the price of gold is the same
in liamburgh and London. The course of exchange at New
York on London is about 1061 per cent., and the par of ex-
change between England and America being 109 23-40 per
cent., it follows that the exchange is 2.83 per cent. against
England. But the quoted exchange at New York being for
bills at 60 days' sight, the interest must be deducted from
the above difference,

SUDDEN DEATH or Mit. WM. SMITH, THE CO-
MEDIAL—Mr. W. Smith, the well-knelt:ft comedian, for
many years a great favouritef at the Surrey Theatre, ex-
pired on the morning Sundayt last, at his late residence,
23, Brook•street, Reinin Iti appears that the deceased
for some time past had ge;tins I but nothing fatal
was anticipated by his friends. indisposed, but
last Thursday or
Friday he was able to walk out ;Ida answer td a friend
who had inquired how he felt, he repliedlti
tint as strong as ever he was, and that he intetndede wtaesclgieeat't
the undertaker for the present. He, however, was mistakenaer
in his calculations, for he never went out again he
reached his home. His symptoms became worse, and he
" shook off this mortal coil without a groan." His death is
considered to have been perfectly natural, but, as it was
rather sudden, it is quite probable that a Coroner's inquest
will be held on the body. The deceased was only in his 47th
year.
CANDID.—A poor woman, on Tuesday last, went
into the shop of Mr. Moore, baker, Ancoats-street, Man.
chester, to purchase a 41b, loaf. On putting down a shilling
in payment, she remarked, " That, sir, is the last shilling I
have in the world, hut when this loaf is eaten I will come
again and take a loaf, whether I have money of not, and then
I shall be sent to the New Bailey !" adding, " You knot, sir, I
have been a regular customer for many years, but there is not
one of our family that is in work, nor any prospect of being
so." Things are approaching a crisis, and of this our autho-
rities are aware.
Nat.4oLgoN BONAPARTE.—His fate furnishes a re-

there is no doubt that his dislike to medicine remotely caused
his early dissolution; for rather than take sonie simple
remedy, he allowed disease to gain the ascendancy over his
constitution, and death was the result. Thus it is that per-
sons canoot be too watchful of their state of health, and being
always provided with a safe and efficient
two greatest blessings of
medicine, such as
Frampton's Pill of Health, enoy the
this world, health and long hits.
