INTO. 114, REGENT - STREET.— Messrs.
NICOLL have, in these Warerooms, the NEW REGISTERED
PALETOT in every substance ; but at present they are chiefly
adapted for warm weather. The sizes kept ready for Immediate
wear will embrace all, from a Daniel Lambert to the smallest school-
boy. Although -Nieoll's Patent Pocket Protector, together with other
improvements, have been added, yet the New Registered Paletot
will retain its predecessor's moderate charge, viz., Two Guikeas, or
lined silk, Two-and-a-Half; and the Paletot d'Ete, One Guinea.

rca 116, REGENT - STREET. Messrs.
NICOLL have recently attached these premises to those
where they have hitherto been honoured with the distin-
guished patronage of their Reyal Highnesses Prince Albert,
Prince George of Cambridge, his Grace the Duke of Welling-
ton, the elite of rank and fashion, as also the chief members
01 the senate, pulpit, and the bar. In addition to an increased ac-
commodation for the sale of the REGISTERED PALETO I', these
new wai crams will contain, ready for immediate see, driving capes,
wrappers, yachting and shooting coats, the substances of which are
adapted for the service of travellers to any clime, be it Kamschatka,
Tinzbuctoo, or any of the more temperate and genial regions.

NO. 120, REGENT - STREE f. Messrs.
NICOLL have here collected the whole of the very
large reserve stock of WOOLLEN CLOTHS, FANCY and
PLAIN TROUSE aINGS, VESTINGS, &c., necessary to sup-
ply their several establishments. Most of the designs for
the present season are either registered or confined to their
sole use, but the choice of which (any length being cut) is now offered
to town and country buyers, shippers, &c., the whole being marked
in plain figures at the smallest rate of profit perhaps ever previously
offered. It would be idle of Messrs. Nicoll to Invite attention to this
fact, were they sot determined that the goods themselves should be
able to prove their assertion.

NO 22 , CORNHILL.—Messrs. NICOLL re-
spectfully intimate to their City patrons :that these premises
have been expressly opened for their convenience. The NEW
REGISTERED PAL ETO T and other garments can there be obtained
in the same degree of excellence as at their Regent•street Ware-
rooms; materials, fashions, cutters, and others, being under the same
direction.

CH ANGE- A LLEY. —Messrs. NICOLL have
provided SHOW-1101MS (the entrance to which is as above),
where merchants, shippers, &c., may, without interruption, examine
the several samples there displayed, the same being intended for
foreign and colonial purposes. The goods consist of materials only of
the first character, to which attention N particularly invited.

VICOLL'S PALETOT, newly Registered,
6 and 7 Vic., Cap. 65.

Messrs. NICOLL, whilst inviting general attention to this their most
novel effort in the cause of fashion combined with personal comfort,
beg that it will not be forgotten that all that could be said favourably
describing its predecessor for its neatness and unpretending gentle-
wanly appearance, its avoidance of all foreign or extraneous effect,
its moderate price, durability, and a,lreeable lightness ; all these are
retained in the NEW REGISTERED PALETOT, which possesses
the happy combination of two different effects, in other words, it
shows to advantage a good figure, or improves an imperfect one.

NICOLL 'S PATENT POCKET PRO-
TECTOR.—This title describes an invention effectel
by Messrs. NIJOLL, of Regent-street, Cornhill, and else-
where, whereby a desideratum is achieved in a most sim-
ple and novel manner. The POCKET PROTECTOR is applica-
ble to any garment, and is attacked, free of additional expense,
to an overcoat, the form of which is registered by them, and
widely known under the title of the Registered Paletot. The
principal merit of the Pocket Protector consists in its preventing
any valuable substance or object from accidentally dropping out, and
yet the wearer can place such in, or withdraw the same, with all
customary convenience.—Licenses to use this patent will be granted
to all Messrs. Nicoll's agents, resident In the principal provincial
towns.

EXTENSION OF THE BROAD

GAUGE TO BIRMINGHAM.

The Railway Commissioners have presented to
Parliament their report on Lord Redesdale's motion
for an inquiry into the merits of the different lines
running to the north. We have not seen the report,
but we understand it admits the superior speed of the
broad gauge engines, and recommends that the broad
gauge should be carried up to Birmingham, on the as-
sumption that a break of gauge at Oxford or Fenny
Compton would he very unfair to the public, and that,
in fact, as the broad gauge will shortly be completed
between London and Wolverhampton, the Commis-
sioners feel bound on public grounds to recommend
its continuation from Oxford to Birmingham. We
are informed—but we must be permitted to doubt the
accuracy of the information—that the Commissioners
do not admit that the broad gauge has any mercantile
superiority over the narrow gauge in the conveyance
of heavy trains upon certain gradients, or that it is more
economical. We have always understood it to be an ac-
knowledged fact, that one of the essential advantages
of the broad gauge is its daily practice of running
heavy first and second-class express trains at speeds
which the narrow-gauge locomotive has never yet
approached; and we have always looked forward to
the extension of the broad gauge to Birmingham as
a public advantage, inasmuch as second-class passen-
gers, as well as first, will then enjoy the benefit of
transit by express trains to and from Birmingham, a
benefit which the London and North-Western cannot,
from the inferior power and speed of their narrow-
gauge locomotives, confer upon railway passengers.
We believe, from our own personal observations, that
the recently-constructed broad-gauge engines will
take a two-hundred ton train as fast as, it not faster,
than any narrow-gauge engine can take a hundred ton
train up or down the average gradients of the rail-
ways of this country, and that they will do so at a
much less comparative consumption of coke, and wear
and tear of machinery.
We also hear that the document in question eu-
logises the report of the Gauge Commissioners. We
are almost inclined to be sceptical on this point, when
we reflect upon the strange conclusions at which the
Gauge Commissioners arrived, and the variance ex-
isting between those conclusions and numerous facts
then evident, and which facts further experience has
rendered notorious.—Morning Herald.

man residing at Madron, near Penzance, has been con-
fined to his house for a considerable period from a fear-
ful attack of paralysis. He had recourse to the best
medical aid but to no purpose, as in such cases the usual
treatment never does any good, he then resolved upon
using Holloway's ointment and pills, and to the surprise
of all who knew hit deplorable state, these wonderful
medicines alone have restored him to perfect health and
the complete use of his limbs. These valuable medicines
are sold by all druggists, and at Professor Holloway's
est,iblishment, 244, Strand, London.

The new and superb New York line of packet-
ship, Devonshire, arrived yesterday afternoon in the

who, three years ago, brought the colt brated packet-
ship Victoria. The Devonshire has seventy-three state
rooms in her chief cabin, and not one of thorn was un-
occupied.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
EPSOM RACES..—TUESDAY.
We observed in our sketch of the engagements the
entries did not quite come up to " concert pitch;" the
remark is particularly applicable to the Craven Stakes,
in which no public horse made his appearance whose
running can by any ingenuity be supposed ta have the
slightest reference to the Derby nags. The racing
having so little to attract, we must attribute the attend-
ance yesterday—and it was moderate enough—to the
conjoint influence of fine weather, railway facilities, and
the anxiety evinced amongst the thousandsinterested in
the Derby—either by direct speculation, or through the
instrumentality of sweeps—to ascertain, IV
personal
obsei vation, how the chances of their several fancies
stood affected in the "ring." We need not, therefore,
call upon imaginations to " make much ado about
nothing;" it is enough to state that some of the races
were run over a portion of the new Derby Course—the
only novelty—and that the sport, if it lacked importance,
came quite up to the standard in quantity; it
was not
brought to a close until half-past six o'clock. Passing
from the events of the day, we may devote a few lines
to the fluctuations in the Derby betting. Some large
sums were laid at evens on Surplice, who, at the close of
business, appeared to have slightly the call of the field.
Glendower and Nil Desperandum were backed at 6 to 1
each, and 10 to 1 was taken once or twice about Springy
Jack; the layers, however, were numerous and eager,
and at the close his backers were non est.
Shylock, in
the early part of the afternoon, was quoted at
10 to 1,
and looked " suspicious;" various rumours were afloat—
he had been coughing—was sold--would not run, &c., a
panic was the consequence, and he went by rapid strides
to 30 and 40 to 1, taken, however, by good judges. It
then transpired that the Duke of Rutland had .consented
ated
to give Robinson up to ride for r Clifdepa- 00 14,004,
which, Mr. Green, who had retained him in the eve" °I
his not being required by the Duke, put in his claim;
.e
a
long negotiation ensued, and the result was, that the
Duke of Rutland's permission was recalled;. thus Robin-
son, after all, will be on The Fiddler, at least such is the
present arrangement. Pending this discussion, Shylock
came again with a rush, and th MC who laid 30 and 40 to
1, had the mortification to see him backed at 10 and 12
to 1. This movement, following, upon the scratching of
the old firm of " Swiss Boy and Company," made no
small stir in the ring. The general prices, up to six
o'clock, the names of the probable starters, riders, &c.,
are given underneath. Whether there wilj be any more
"declarations" remains to be seen; but that such will be
the case is far from improbable.
The racing commenced shortly after the appointed
hour, with

The Cur was one of the first off, but was immediately
drawn back, and the running taken up by Sagacity, fol-

gave place to Brocardo, who went in, waiting on with
Sagacity and Sir G. Heathcote's filly to the road, where
he took up the running. The Cur played the waiting
game to the half distance, where he shot past the leading
horses, and ran home an easy winner by a length—only

Ttiß Moore.—The coming season promises to
be an excellent one for grouse shooting. The disease
which prevailed among the birds, to some extent
throughout the two last years, seems to have altogethe;
disappeared. In no one instance have parties that we
have met with, who have been traversing the moors tt:
choose their quarters, detected either dead or weak birds
in this or the neighbouring counties; nor is there a
n
reasonable probability that the first hatch will be lea,
sened or destroyed by frost or storms, as happens
n
when good weather i 3 premature. The demand
for
shooting is equal to that of previous seasons.— Aber
