NOW EXHIBITING, AT THE
F. GYPTIAN HALL, PICCADILLY,
the most EXTRAORDINARY EXHIBITION of ABORI-
GI,ES EVER SEEN in EUROPE, landed in Liverpool by the
brig Fanny, Captain Wheeler.
TWO MEN, TWO WOMEN, and a BABY, of the BOSIESMAN
or BUSH TRIBE, from the interior of South Africa, a race that,
from their wild habits, could never before be induced to visit a place
of civilization. This opportunity of gratifying the man of science
and the student in zoology has only been obtained by great personal
exertion on the part of the gentlemen who have brought them to
England, at an immense outlay of capital. On the passage to Europe
a baby was born at sea, thus adding to the great interest that must
be excited by their appearance.
From the Liverpool Journal :—" Bosjesmans, or Bush People, from
Southern Africa—Interesting specimens of a most extraordinary race
of human beings have been landed in our port; they are the Bosjes-
mans, or Bush People from the interior of South Africa, of which so
mach has been written by the missionaries, and the few who hare
travelled to that far distant region. They are natives of the country
bordering the Great Orange River, 1,200 or 1,400 miles from Cape
Town. They exhibit almost as striking an absence of the intelle..tual or
higher faculties as is observable in the skull of that mockery of
humanity, the Baboon, while the preponderance of the animal is al-
most equally as great. In every respect they are calculated to excite

AN Additional and Important Evidence of the
Salutary Effects of BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC
PILLS, from Mr. Samuel Dixon, of Kingscliffe, Northamptonshire.
" Kingscliffe, Northamptonshire, March 14, 1846.
" To Mr. Thomas Prout, 229, Strand, London.
" Sir,—l feel it a duty which I owe to yourself and the public to
nform you of the great benefit which I have derived by taking
Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills. During several years I was fre-
quently laid up by attacks of gout, being unable to attend to business
for months at a time. I had often been advised to try Blair's Pills,
but it was not until a friend pressed them upon me that I was in-
duced to take them. and from which I found speedy relief. This is
several years ago, but I continue to take them whenever an attack
comes on, and am thereby enabled quickly to resume my business.
• I am, Sir, your obedient servant,
"SAMUEL DIXON."
The above testimonial exhibits the never-failing effects of this
valuable medicine, which affords to the afflicted with gout, rheu-
matism, lumbago, sciatica, and all analogous complaints, speedy and
certain relief.
Among the many discoveries that characterise the present age,
none have co•itributed so much to the comfort and ease of the com-
munity, nor conferred such a boon upon suffering humanity, as the
important discovery of BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS,
the efficacy of which has been tested by the approval and recommen-
dation of many of the greatest men of our day. They are effective
for gout and rheumatism in all its various forms, including sciatica,
lumbago, pains in the head and face, frequently treated as tooth-
ache, &c. They require neither confinement nor attention of any
kind, and invariably prevent the disease attacking the stomach, brain,
or other vital part.
Sold by Thomas Prout, 229, Strand, London ; and by his appoint-
ment, by all respectable Medicine Venders throughout the United
Kingdom. Price 2s. 9d. per box.

T 0 M Y LOOKING-GLASS.
Pride of my toilet! think me not conceited
In peeping rather often through your glass;
For oh I my eye is regularly treated,
On seeing what a change has come to pass.
I am improved in feature and in figure,
And really I appear a little bigger.
At one time I'd have parted with a ransom
For pleasing form and gentlemanly air;
But now (without that cost) I'm getting handsome,
Through nothing but the garments that I wear.
See, bright reflector ! what my form discloses,
And duly estimate the Mart of MOSES.

Well do I recollect my " first appearance"
In fashionable dress from MOSES' Mart ;
Of all my shabby looks there was a clearance,
And in an instant I became quite smart.
No doubt you recollect my gazing at you
In mute amazement, like a marble statue.

I never look throh thee, thon neh
ed t
u sfl glass,
But with a wish for MOSES' vasccess ;
May they who caused this change to come to pan
Be still triumphant in their matchless dress.
For, oh 1 the beauty which your plats discloses
" Reflects bright" credit on the Mart of MOSES'.

zled old and experienced practitioners."—Law Times, May 22, 1847.

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 gentleman residing at Northam, in Norfolk, who, in the year 1842,
on returning from Ilarlestone Market to NVeybred, where he then re-
sided, sustained so severe a fall from his horse, as to bring on an ill-
ness of several months' duration, daring which period his hair con-
tinued to come off, till he became, to use his own terms, " as perfectly
bald as if his head had 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 MACASSA ft 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 halt*, 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 MACASS NR OIL " on the wrapper.

These Pills have for years been employed in most of the Metro-
politan Ilospitals and Dispensaries, and were extensively prescribed
by the late Samuel Cleverley, M.D., Physician to the father of her
present Majesty, his late Royal Highness the. Duke of Kent; John
Armstrong, 11.0., Member of the Royal College of Physicians of
London, Lecturer on the Principles and Practice of Physic at the

the Proprietor in upwards of 1,800 cases in private practice within
three years, prior to being advertised—in many thousand cases since,
and in no one instance known to fail—are strongly recommended as
a far more efficacious remedy than Balsam Copaiba, Cubebs, or any
other medicine in present use. Many other medical gentlemen of
distinguished eminence in London have borne testimony to the effi-
cacy of these Pills, whose professional character and rank are a
sufficient guarantee for the advantages to be derived from the use of
this invaluable medicine.—Prepared only by M. 0. Wray; sold at

ESSENCE OF LIFE.
This valuable Medicine, which for nearly a century has
maintained so high a reputation in Germany, and other parts
of Use Continent, as to have met with the protection of Imperial
and Bavarian privileges, can now be obtained in London.
It was discovered by Dr. Kiesow, an eminent physician of Augs-
burg, and Counsellor to the King of Bavaria; and as an effectual
remedy in removing the various diseases incident to the abdominal
viscera it stands unparalleled. In all cases of dyspepsia or indiges-
tion, which tend g ene rally to headache, giddiness, or nervous debility,
it yields immediate relief.
Further particulars may be learnt in a Medical Treatise, gratis,

FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE
SOUTU 'COAST RAILWAY.
BRIGHTON, JuA., I.—We regret to state that a
melancholy and fat.a.P accident occurred, on Monday
evening, on the Portsmouth Extension of the Brighton
and Chichester Rai'way. Rumour, as usual, had greatly
exaggerated the result, it being reported in Brighton
yesterday morning that five, six, and even ten persons
had lost their lives. 'At the station our reporter learned
that the accident had`proved fatal with regard to one
person only, and heiproceeded by an early train to the
spot. In the train ',lle had for fellow-passengers Mr.
Thomas Kirtley (locomotive engineer of the company),
Mr. Copley (the assistant manager of the railway), and
Mr. Acton (superintendent of the railway police), who
were also on the way to the site of the accident. Learn-
ing the object of our reporter's journey, the first named
gentleman kindly informed him that he was a passenger
by the train which sustained the accident, and he volun-
teered the particulars which we here subjoin :
The train in question was a continuation of the two
o'clock down train from London. It started from
Brighton on its way to Havant at a quarter past four
o'clock, and kept its time with perfect exactness, leaving
Chichester at 20 minutes to six. Mr. Kirtley had gone
to Chichester by an earlier train to make arrangements
with regard to a supply of gas, and having finished this
business, and wishing to proceed to Havant for the pur-
pose of arranging for the departure of seine extra trains
this morning, he stepped on the engine of the train, and
rode with the driver from Chichester to Bosham Pound,
a station three miles towards Portsmouth. Here he left
the engine, and entered a carriage in which were his wife
and child, and the train proceeded about a mile and a half
forward, when a rumliiig noise was heard, and the train
immediately came to a standstill near Nutbourne, half-
way between the Bosham station and the borders of the
counties of Sussex and' Hampshire, at Emsworth. The
speed was between 32 and 35 miles, the road is perfectly
level, and the line straight. Without any apparent
cause the engine had suddenly left the line, the rails and
the engine being in the-hest working conoition. It ap-
peared that the engine* leaving the rails rushed across
the up line at an angle `Or about 45, and tearing up the
rails in its progress toppled over an embankment about
four feet high into a ditch about the same depth, wheels
uppermost. The connecting irons which couple the
engine and tender having snapped, the tender was drawn
off the line only a few inches, probably by the jerk.
The luggage box was also just off the line, and had
mounted the tender, but none of the carriages were off,
nor were they in the slightest degree injured.
On the train being thus suddenly brought up, Mr.
Kirtley bad the passengers alighted. The engine•
driver was found under the tender, lie is supposed to
have fallen from the engine at the moment it left the
rails, and to have been struck by the train, and the first
wheel of the tender having passed over his thigh com-
pletely severed it. He was quite dead. His name was
John Gregory. Ile wes about twenty-eight years of
age, and has left a widow and family. He was a very
steady driver.
The stoker, whose name is Henry Peel, was about
the same age, and he was also a married man, living at
Brighton. Ile was found lying close to the driver. His
right arm was nearly severed from his shoulder, and his
scull was fractured, but he was still alive. He was re-
moved to a neighbouring cottage, where he was promptly
attended by medical men, procured from Emsworth. lie
is in a desperate condition, but still some hope is enter-
tained of his recovery,
The only other person who was injured by the ca-
tastrophe was the guard, named Careless. He merely
received a slight shock, and is to-day nearly recovered.
From the spot where the engine left the rails to its
present site is exactly eighty yards • to the spot where
the tender and train stopped, sixty-five yards ; and con-
sequently the bodies were picked up about twenty yards
from the overturned engine. The tender is barely in-
jured, with the exception of an indentation of the water
tank ; and the luggage box had not so much as a
splinter knocked off,
So gradually, although so rapidly, was the train
brought up, that the passengers did not suspect an acci-
dent until the train stopped. Mr. Kirtley himself stated
to our reporter that it was his extensive knowledge of
railway traffic which alone led him to detect somethiug
unusual in the rumbling noise produced by the engine
as it was tearing up the rails. The passengers were
promptly forwarded to their destination in vehicles pro-
cured in the neighbourhood. About 20 of the rails
were broken or bent, and some delay was of course oc-
casioned to the subsequent trains. The tender was on
the rails in half an hour, and was the same evening re-
moved to Brighton.
The site of the accident is in the small thick wood at
the back of the beautiful little village of Nutbourne. As
described above, the line is perfectly straight and per-
fectly level; the rails had been replaced; and it was not
till a second look had been taken that he discovered the
damaged rails lying on one side of the very low embank-
ment, and the overturned engine in the ditch on the
other. Anything less like what one pictures as the site
of a fatal railway accident can hardly be imagined.
As to the immediate cause of the accident nothing is
known. An investigation will, of course, take place by
a Government engineer. The ballasting on the spot is
a coarse gravel, that which we believe geologists call
alluvial; and on looking at the spot an idea suggested
itself, that one of the larger stones might have been
accidentally or otherwise placed on the rail. A footpath
crosses the railway on a level, exactly midway between
the place where the engine ran off and where it stopped.
This suggestion is answered by the fact, that the engine
is furnished with "protectors," which would remove
from the rails anything of an inch diameter. A second
idea is suggested by an inspection of the engine. It is
one of Stephenson 's last patents, but the cylinders are
on the outside, and some drivers dislike such engines,
because of their greater oscillation, or " wobbling."
Mr. Kirtley had an escape which may be regarded as
truly miraculous. Had he remained on the engines, as
is his custom, for the purpose of overlooking the line, he
would probably have shared the fate of the driver and
stoker; to his change at Bosham from the engine to a
carriage may he owe his life.
The body of the driver lies at the Bell and Anchor,
Nutbourne.— Times.
