THE SOCIALISTS IN AUSI'RIIiii

Reichenberg in Bohemia has been the scene of some
serious disturbances in consequence of the arrival of *
Socialist agitator. He attempted to hold a meeting of
workmen, in order to acquaint them with his theories and
persisted in his purpose in spite of the efforts
of the police. After his return to Vienna, large wen'
blages of workmen took place in the streets of Reichenberk
and so much disorder ensued that the chief magistrate
issued a decree, forbidding anyone to leave his hoots
except on business. This did not produce the desired
effect, and the troops were sent for,, who drove the mob
before them with their bayonets. At the last accounts thf
town was quiet.

" HOSPI7 A L SUNDAY."

....,.....--...-....qp.-.......--

The Lancet, reverting to a suggestion made in
that journal a few weeks ago, urges that a
serious endeavour should be made to insti-
tute a " HOspital Sunday" permanently and
on a national scale. In Birmingham it has for
some years been ►he custom to set apart one Sun-
day annually, on whiel day collections are made
in the churches and chapels of all denominations
on behalf of the medical charities of the town.
The Lancet describes the plan of collection

and distribution at Birmingham, and arguos that
so good an example deserves imitation on a
wider basis. Our contemporary further points
out how such a scheme might be set on foot
throughout the country, and suggests that, as
regards the metropolis, the Lord Mayor, in coo-
junction with the Bishop of London, should call a
meeting at the Mansion-house to take the subject
of a " Hospital Sunday" for London into consi-
deration.

TEMPERANCE IN IRELAND.

An address has been presented to Mr. Toner,
large landowner in Ireland, thanking him for
having abolished public-houses on his property.
Drunkenness and crime have greatly diminished,
and the local taxation is much reduced. la
reply, Mr. Tener said—" Anxiously desiring to
promote the interests of the people gene-
rally, and being aware of the ruinous effects of
ilitemperance, I have given support to the tem-
perance movement. I found public-houses on the
estates, corrupting the social life of the
people, and scattering misery and ruin where hap-
piness and prosperity ought to have ruled. In
a district covering sixty and a half square
miles, comprising seven electoral divisions, 110
public-house has now existence, the results being
an entire absence of crime and diminished taxes."
Although no advocates of total abstinence the above
testimony is too valuable to pass without notice.
It affords an admirable example of what personal
influence may do.—The Lancet.

LADTBATISEMENT. I—Holloway's Pills.--Thousands of
instances might be cited in which general debility, low
spirits, and nervous irritations, the consequences of dy-
spepsia or indigestion, have yielded to a short course of thio
alterative medicine. These pills soon give tone to the
stomach, renovate the digestive powers, purify the blood,
and give strength to the whole system. Sluggishness of
the body, and depression of the mind, are succeeded by
cheerful activity of the physical and mental functions. In-
digestion is the parent of so many evils, and is so common,
so universal a complaint,
that it is a great blessing such it
remedy as this invaluable medicine should have been dis-
covered No one need long suffer from indigestion with
these pills at hand.
