[ ADVERTISEMENT.]—A FRIGHTFUL - CASE OF A
BAD LEG CURED BY HOLLOWAY'S OtNymENY AND Pra.s. —Mr.
Thomas Clarke, a retired captain from the South Sea trade, residing
in Glebe4aite, RI ile-end, had a bad leg for five years. There were
about twenty holes in it ; several pieces of bone had come away.
The limb was often the size of a child's body ; it had frequently
caused the most excruciating pain. Tile captain was told that his
leg must be amputated ; but he, like hundreds of others, has
which are just get
it soundly healed by means of these surprising remedies,
infallible in the care of all wounds, sores, and ulcers.—Solo at Pro-
fessor Holloway's Ustahlisinnent, 244, Strand (where advice may be
had gratis), said by all respectable medicine vendors throughout the
civilised world.
A HAWK AND A WEASLE. —While watching the
movements of a brood of vf easles, which were basking upon a shelt
of an old wall, by the edge of a wood in the neighbourhood of sior-
peth, I observed a hawk overhead. Relieving that he had his eye
upon the young bloodsuckers, I concealed myself amongst the brush-
wood, and watched hi% motions with considerable interest. After
wheeling round a few times, as if to ascertain the most favourable
position
point of attack, lie took up adirectly above his game.
Gradually and cautiously descending to the point of attack, he darted
upon his prey, and, in an instant
the air with a young w eas 1 instant, was seen winging his way through
e secure in his talons. So soon as the
hawk was out of sight, I a". •
barn turned my eye to the wall, and ob-
served that the Iv( asles had all disappeared but an old tone, which
stood UpOn its hind legs snuffing the air, and, by the violence of its
gestures, appeared to feel its less acutely. At length It laid itself
down, and, by the
apparent carelessness of its position, seemed to
invite attack. The
hawk was Flair. overhead, and; emboldened by
his recent success, descended with great velocity upon the only re—
maining object of his appetite. Ile caught a Tartar. No sooner had
he secured his prey than lie shot upwards with the rapidity of a
rocket, and in an instant was almost lost in the clouds. A desperate
Str,:ggie appeared to be going on for the mastery, which tided in the
1
two combatants falling violently to the ground. In running to tint
spot where they Mil Rama cum Nth doacL—Nitwaitic q'tnirdian.
