' It seems there is not the slightest semblance of
truth in the wide-spread rumour that the premises of the
Royal Italian Opera, Covent Garden, are to be taken by
the Government for a post-office and telegraph station.
Great additions are being made at the Central Office, in
St. Martin's-le-Grand, in connection with the coming

Dr. Turrell, of Park-street, Windsor, was on
Thursday driving in a carriage over Dorney-common;
near Eton Wick,, when his horse shied at something in
the road, turned into a drain, and threw him out. On
medical assistance being obtained, the doctor was found
to be suffering from concussion of the brain, but hopes are
entertained of his recovery.
Dublin (writes a correspondent) is full of visitors,
who ha' e come to Ireland in consequence of the impossi-
bility of summer travelling on the Continent. Two hun-
dred and fifty landed from the mail-boat at Kingstown on
Thursday. It is expected that for the next two months
the Irish watering places will be very full.
[ADVERTISEMENT. ]—Holloway's Pills. —Biliousness, Dis-
eases of the Liver.—After the long-continued cold wea-
ther the hot summer sun will cause the atmosphere to be
surcharged with deleterious exhalations, which will pro-
duce fevers and irritation of the bowels. To correct the
undue action of the liver, usually the first indication of
febrile complaints, the pills invented by Professor Hollo-
way stand unrivalled. These pills are so cheaply and
easily purchased that none need suffer from nausea, in-
digestion, disordered liver dizziness, or torpid bowels, or,
in a word, from any functional irregularity. These pills
produce a happier effect on the digestive organs than any
other medicinal compounds, whether mineral or vegetable.
