What thousands (said Harry) assembled to see

Tne sight they presented was perfectly splendid.
Their sweet pretty faces,
And personal graces,
Added much to the beautiful sight at the Races.
" Very true (said his Blend, with a nod), very true I
But did you not notice the gentlemen too.
I am told that the gentlemen (fifty to one)
Were Brest in the fashions of MOSES and SON ;
And really such fashions I never beheld—
Such garments were certainly never excell'd,
My eye was so won •

That I look'd not to see how the race would be run."
" Well, well (exclaim'd Harry, with jocular nudge),
Do you fancy that you are the curly good judge?
I never saw fashions se much to my mind,
Nor dresses of such a superior kind.
The Over-Coats made me so anxious for one,
That I've sent up an order to MOSES and SON.
The fact of the case is
(In spite of fair faces),
That these were the graces
Which added so much to the late Cheater Races."

REMARKABLE CASE of RESTORATION.
A striking instance of the power of scientific art to remedy
the detects 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 kJ arlestone Market to Weybrcd, where he then re-
sided, sustained so severe a fall from his horse, as to bring on an ill-
ness of several months' duration, during 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 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 boost of a very
thick and luxuriant bead 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.

the words " ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL " on the wrapper.

1110 P LAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS
LIP Copy of a Letter from Mr. Blake, Khigscliffe, Northampton-

shire :
"Kingscliffe, January 21, 1847.
" Sir,—Twelve years ago I became afflicted with Rheumatic GAIL
I procured the best advice possible, but without deriving benefit ; and
the doctors recommended mo to go to the Stamford Infirmary, where
I continued twelve weeks, and left it without obtaining any benefit,
and all hope of relief had 'vanished.
" This hopeless state of things centinued until a friend advised me'
to try Blair 's Pills. I then lost no time in sending to Mr. Mortlock,
of Stamford, for a box, and by the time I had taken that quantity I
got rid of one crutch. I then sent for another box, which enabled
me to throw away the other, and, thank God, I have never since had
such an attack.

" I am much exposed to cold ; but, whenever I feel symptoms of
attack, I have recourse to the Pills with universal success.
" I recommended the Pills to a gentleman who resides in this
neighbourhood, and he has derived the most essential relief there-
from, and is now never without them.
may publish this for the benefit of those similarly afflicted.
am, air. your obedient, humble servant,
" SAMUEL BLAKE,
" Smith and Farrier."
The never-falling effects of BLAIR'S GOUT and BREUssATIC
PILLS in curing every description of Gout and Rheumatism, have
secured to them a celebrity unequalled by any medicine of past or
present times. They not only give relief in a few hours, but restore
to perfect health in an inconceivably short space of time. They are
equally speedy and certain in Lumbago, Sciatica, Pains in the Mead
or Face, and indeed of every Rhematic or Gouty affection ; in fact,
sucn has been the rapidity, perfect ease, and complete safety of this
medicine, that it has astonished all who have taken it, and there is
scarcely a city, town, or village in the kingdom, but contains many
grateful evidences of its benign influence.
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.

SCARCITY OF GRAIN IN ITALY.

Ferdinand 11., by the grace of God King of the king-
dom of the Two Sicilies, of Jerusalem,
&c., Duke of
Parma, Placentia, Castro, &c., Hereditary Grand Prince
of Tuscany, &c., referring to our royal decrees of the
26th of January and the sth of February of the current
year, which prohibit the exportation from the Two
Sicilies of wheat, grain, peas, &c., of all kinds ;
Considering that, notwithstanding the prices of those
articles still continue to rise ; wishing to favour the
introduction of corn and meal, &c., into the kingdom ;
upon the proposal of our Minister the Secretary of State
for Internal Affairs, and haring heard the advice of our
ordinary Council of State, we have resolved to decree,
and we hereby decree, as follows
I.
The Custom-house d AuRTICLE ty on wheat, grain, peas, and
meal, &c., established by the tariffs approved by the
Royal decree of the 30th of November,lB24, is suspended
until the end of May next ensuing.
Our Ministers, the ARTICLE 11.
Affairs and of Finance, Secretaries of State of Internal
and our Lieutenant-General in

ROBBERY IN AN OMNIBUS.—On Monday evening
Mrs. lleming, of No. 93, Alpha-road, St. John's Wood,
had her reticule cut from her arm whilst riding in an
omnibus from the Bank to Charing-cross, by, it is supposed,
a lady-like female, who quitted the omnibus suddenly near
Exeter-hall, followed by a well-dressed man, having the
appearance of a foreigner. The bag contained three 101.
Bank of England notes, twelve sovereigns, and about 14s. in
silver, and a gold locket with flaxen hair, and the portrait of
a gentleman bearing a crest, a lion rampant, with the motto
of L'Esperance.
REDUCTION OT RENT.—We understand that Mr.
Burn, factor on the estate of Stewarthall, has intimated to
the tenants that the trustees have granted a handsome re-
duction of rent this year. This is following up what the
late worthy landlord of Stewarthall publicly announced be.
fore his death—that should the Legislature throw open the
ports, and he had no doubt but they would, he would be
amongst the Brat to let down his rent, and also to throw
the restriction of maximum and minimum to the winds; and
judging from the praiseworthy manner in which the trustees
have acted, we have no doubt but they will follow up the
remainder of the late worthy gentleman's promise.—Stirling
Journal.
