HEALTH RESTORED WITHOUT MEDICINE OR EXPENSE.
DU BARRY'S delicious health-restoring Invalids
and Infants' Food.

THE -RE VALENTA ARA BIC A

saves fifty times its cost in other remedies, and restores perfect
digestion, strong nerves, sound lungs, healthy liver, refreshing
sleep, functional regularity, and energy to the most disordered or
enfeebled—removing speedily and effectually indigestion (dyspep_
sia), cough, asthma, consumption, habitual constipation, diarrhoea,
all gastric derangements, htemorrhoids, liver complaints, flatu-
lency, nervousness, biliousness, fevers, sore throats, diphtheria,
catarrhs, colds, influenza, noises in the head and ears, rheumatism,
gout, impurities, eraptioni, hysteria, neuralgia, irritability, sleep-
essness, acidity, palpitation, heartburn, headache, debility, dropsy,
cramps, spasms, nausea, and sickness, even in pregnancy or at
sea, sinking fits, and bronchitis, scrofula, tightness of the chest,
pains at the pit of the stomach and between the shoulders. It is
the most digestible and nourishing of all foods, and suitable for
nvalids and infants in all complaints.
IMPORTANT CAUTION.—Beware of the many unsavoury and more
than slopy imitations to which, without authority, Baron Liebig's
name is most audaciously attached.
Henceforth none will doubt the valuable properties of Du
Barry s health-restoring Revalenta Arabica Invalids' and Infants'
Food, since to the thousands of blessings it has already received
from invalids whose position had been deemed hopeless, we may
now add that of his Holiness the Pope, whose health has been
perfectly restored by it after thirty years of unsuccessful medical
treatment. We quote from the " Gazette du Midi," July 25th
(Cure No. 48,413) :—" Rome, July 21st, 1866.—The health of the
Holy Father is excellent, especially since, abandoning all other
remedies, he has confined himself entirely to Du Barry's Revalenta
Arabica Food, of which he consumes a plateful at every meal. It
has produced a surprisingly beneficial effect on his health, and his
Holiness cannot praise this excellent food too highly."
Cure No 5 ,2 8 of the Marchioness de Brehan of seven years'
liver complaint, wasting away, debility, nervousness, irritability,
with a nervous palpitation all over, bad digestion, constant sleep-
lessness, and the most intolerable nervous agitation.
Cure No. 78, of dyspepsia, from the Right Hon. the Lord Stuart
de Decies, Lord Lieutenant of the County of Waterford; "I have

CIEB, Dromana, Cappoquin, County Waterford."

The large and valuable range of Silver Mines which this com-
pany is formed to work is situated in the same rich district, and
in close proximity to the profitable Mines of the celebrated Real
del Monte Company, which, since its establishment in 1849, has
yielded Dividends to the Shareholders amounting to nearly
£3,000,000 sterling.
No drainage is now required as the shafts have all become dry
since the completion of the great Aviadero adit of the Real del
Monte Company,_

Ore yielding only £6 9s. per ton pays all expenses. The resul
therefore of numerous assays of ores taken from various parts
of these mines, and giving an average value of £45 10s. per ton,
cannot but be considered as highly satisfactory, more espe-
cially as the average produce of the 525,978 tons of ore, reduced
by the Real del Monte Company up to 1865, was only £l3 4s. per
ton, from which, notwithstanding the great cost incurred by that
company for drainage, a profit of £2,411,500 to that period was
made.
Prospectuses, reports, and forms of application for shares, may
be obtained at the Offices of the Company, and of the Bankers,
Solicitors, and Brokers.

MISCELLANEOUS TOPICS.

A Useful Commission.

What good end does the Royal Commission on
Primary Education in Ireland propose to itself ? Of
what use can a commission be which sits three years,
and yet returns no report ? Mr. Kavanagh,
describes the history of this Irish Education Commis-
sion :—" That commission, proposed by Lord Derby's.
Administration, August 5, 1867, though objected to
as unnecessary by leading Liberals, was not opposed,
on the distinct pledge, given by Lord Naas, that `the
Government would be able to lay the opinion of that
commission before the House at the commencement
of next session.' It was not appointed, however,
till the 14th of January, 1868, the royal letter con-
stituting the commission prescribing fourteen months
from that date for making the inquiry and report.
February, 1868, passed, and no report; March, 1869,
passed, and no report; and now,. near the middle of
May, 1870, the Commission is still sitting—the
Crown, Parliament, and the people knowing nothing
of the mysterious proceedings of these gentlemen
save the enormous item of their expenses in the
Civil Service Estimates, under the mis-description of
temporary commissions.' " The education question
may well be difficult when inquiring bodies waste
the time of the nation in this way. Or course the
Commission is spending money, if it is doing nothing
else. It was to have cost £1,400 ; it has, already
spent £8,905.
The Contest at Mallow.

The Liberal candidate has triumphed at Mallow by
eight votes. The Times' correspondent attaches much
importanceto this election. In the first place, it seems
to shew that Mallow is pledged to Liberalism, for
after repeated trials the Liberal voters have come off
triumphant. Major Knox maintained the contest
under most favourable circumstances, being the
adopted champion of the Conservatives, while pre-
senting a political programme of an advanced
" National" policy going beyond what Mr. Waters
could accept. Thus his failure will be a blow to the
Tory-Repeal party, and the moral effect of the election
will be of far greater value to the Ministry than the
simple retention of a single seat.
The Longford Nomination.

The speeches at the nomination of candidates for
Longford were of an amusing, as well as a significant
character. For many years the representation of
the county Longford has been in the hands of the
Greville family, and all the efforts of other candidates
at elections have failed to turn success in an opposite
direction. A magistrate, who seconded Mr. George
Greville on Tuesday, referred to some particulars
which served to shew the strategems,
which, it is alleged, were necessary, were
practised in the interest of outside candidates. He
said he could not omit mentioning the acts of Lady
Ross, the grandmother of Mr. Harman, which were
fresh in the memory of many present. From her
hatred to the Catholic religion and to Catho-
lics, and with a view of securing to her
grandson the peaceable and undisturbed re-
presentation of the county, that lady was sup-
posed during her long lifetime to have banished
from her estates 10,000 human beings, and this she
did in order to vest in her successor the power she
possessed of returning whom she wished as the repre-
sentatives of the county Longford. Captain Harman
did not allow this attack on his relative to pass
unnoticed. He accordingly rose from his seat, and,
without giving a direct contradiction to that allega-
tion, declared that none of his ancestors had hung a
number of rebels in 1708, as a -certain member of the
noble house of Greville had done opposite his own
gate-house, in Ballinamuck. Captain Harman's
retort was received with loud cheers, and, as has
been already stated, the show of hands resulted in
his favour.
