.14- One half the world are desolately single, and the other
supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
sense of right determine tie former, and miscalculated hopes ens-
Sater the latter. The solitary ono may shield himself under the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret -un-
comprosing harry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
and social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour and justice denlaud that health should form au item
in the compact ; tt alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or
neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if
these surmises concern you, procure Dr. CULYERWELL'S little
MEMOIRS 'On Single and Married Life," pub. in 2 vols., le.
each (by nost, in stamps, Is. 6d. each). Lot no imaginatively
refined, er prudish feeling doter you, by their titles, nor be hindered
oy mieinterpretation of their supposed contents, from obtaining
there. They are not intended certainly for mere idle cariosity, but
lor the closet perusal of those more deeply interested, to whom
they are offered as antagonistic to the empyrical trash put forth on
the above subjecti, by unqualified authors, which alone or
together, are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore, two other
.ittle publications claim your attention (same price le. each,
by post Is. 6d.) called " What to Eat, Drink, and
Avoid," and " How to be Happy." They are not merely
pamphlets, but equal in quantity a library volume, nor are they the
mere ephemeral scribblings of the hour, but the study of the author's
life,who owes his present existence, health, and position to this ob-
servanee of tee maxims ho would inculcate—t 3 do unto others as he
would be done unto—to live after nature's laws—and to keep always
on the "sunny side of the way." The above works may be had of

wise) ftom the author (who may be conferred with personally,

The Nottingham trade continues depressed. The
cut-up hose branch of the hosiery department is in a
very feverish and disturbed state. one of the principal
manufaczurers having given notice of his intention of
reducing the wages twopence per dozen. The silk
glove trade keeps in an amended state, when compared
to what it was a few months since ; but we have heard
of journeymen being wholly out of work, which was not
the case some weeks ago. The cotton glove trade,
though somewhat depressed, is in a tolerable condition
to what it was last summer.—Nottingham Review.

[ADVERTISEINIENT.]—WOUHdB in the Leg that had
been bad for years, cured by Holloway's Ointment and
Pills.—Mr. W. Darling, of Stirkoke by Wick, had
suffered very severely for a long time with deep wounds
in his leg, and in his endeavours to get them healed he
obtained the advice of many eminent surgeons, and
tried almost every remedy, yet all failed to effect a cure,
until he used Holloway's Ointment and Pills ; these in-
valuable medicines alone healed his leg in a few weeks,
and now it is as sound as even—Holloway's Ointment is
a safe and certain cure for old wounds, burns, scalds,
tumours, chilblains, and unnatural swellings.—Sold by
all druggists, and at Professor Holloway's establish-
ment, 244, Strand, London.
HELaisomx, MAUCH 20.—Several days since, as
a gentleman was driving down the strath of Kildonan„
his attention was attracted by tile piercing cries of a
young child, which appeared to proceed from a rocky
cliff, and on looking up, he saw an eagle sitting on the
ledge of a projecting crag, busily employed in tearing
off the clothes off the infant. He immediately scrambled
up the hill, and rescued it (more dead than alive) from
the talons of the ferocious bird. He then conveyed the
child in his gig to the first cottage on the roadside,when
it was discovered to belong to a shepherd who resided
some six miles further up the glen.—Ross-shire Adver•
tiser.
