[ADVEETISEMENT.]—PainfuI Wounds in the Legs
and Body Cured after Seventeen Years' duration by Hol-
loway's Ointment and Pills.—Extract of a letter from Mr.
W. Staples, dated Belgrave-gate, Leicester, November 9,
1848. To Professor Holloway, Sir,—" I was an invalid
for seventeen years, suffering dreadfully with painful
ulcers in my legs, and different parts of my body; during
this period I was attended by several most eminent sur-
geons, but their remedies failed to do me the least good.
1 then commenced using your Ointment and Pills, and
by these invaluable Medicines alone, I am pleased to
state that in a short time all the wounds were soundly
healed, and lam restored to excellent health." Sold by
all Druggists, and at Professor Holloway's establishment,
244, Strand, London.
NEW POTATOES OND GREEN PEAS.—The back-
ward character of the spring has induced some importa-
tions of these early luxuries, some parcels of each kind
having been received by Messrs. Keeling and Hunt, by
the Madrid steamer from Lisbon, both descriptions bear-
ing as fresh an appearance as if grown in Ragland.
