[ADVERTISEMENT.]—The Registered Paletot of
Llama cloth, the most fashionable coat for both the present
and approaching seasons, still retains the same moderate
price, which, with its usefulness and gentlemanly appear-
ance, has secured such general popularity. It has been made
by special command for their Royal Highnesses Prince
Albert, Prince George of Cambridge, Prince Edward of Saxe
Weimar, his Grace the Duke of Wellington, and the several
royal visitors to the British Court. In London it can only
be purchased of the patentees, H. .1. and D. Nicoll, Court
tailors, 114, .Regent-street, and 22, Cornhill. Agents for
Liverpool, Dawbarn and Son, Bold-street ' • for Dublin, Geo.
Macaona, Molesworth-street ; for Birmingham, Wareing and
Son; New-street; for Edinburgh, Christie and Son, George-
street ; and the principal tailors in other large towns.
The mortality of London, and indeed, of England
generally, shows a gradual annual decrease, whilst it is well
known the population increases considerably. The rates of
premium for life insurance have been greatly reduced during
the last few years, yet the offices continue as prosperous as
formerly. These facts clearly demonstrate that some cause,
either unknown or unheeded, must have produced such
favourable results. Atrongst these causes, the increased
knowledge of anatomy, and the many very valuable disco-
veries in medicine, will stand most prominent. The small-
pox, that annually carried off thousands, has been success-
fully combatted by vaccination ; and Gout, that used to claim
its numerous victims, hughly vanquished by
Blair's Gout and

IMARRABLE CURE OH
t Wootton, near Bedford, re-

an opulent fanner, who some time

illa
agoTI;ITs in a most te, from dropsy, being nearly double
his ordinary size. lie wa over by his medical attendants, and
was, at the time, not expe ted to live three days; yet from this
hopeless state he was cured by taking Holloway's rills. This gen-
tleman is well known in all the market towns of the cell*. The
wonders that this fine medicine does in all cases of dropsy is truly sur-
prising, and those who are labouring under this dreadful complaint
should certainly try this remedy. Sold by all druggists, and at Pro-
fessor Holloway's Estabilsbment, 244, Strand, London.
The Journal de Fecamp states that an immense
bank of oysters has been recently discovered between
the point of Barflanr and Cape de !a Hove, being nine
leagues in length, two in width, and from 60 to 90 centi-
metres in thickness. This bank is three leagues distant
from Batfleur, and eight from Havre. It is, however,
in part beyond the limits assigned for oyster dredging
for French vessels exclusively. Large quantities have
already been taken up.
