THE HIGHLAND DWARFS.

THE HIGHLAND DWARFS, who have had
the honour of exhibiting before her Majesty and his Royal
Highness Prince Albert on two different occasions, are now to be
seen in the Cosmorama Rooms, 209, Regent-street, every day from
twelve to two o'clock, and from three to five ; and from seven to nine
in the evening. The dwarfs are three in number, two males and a
male (brothers and sister) ; they are fully equipped in the High-
land garb, and perform a series of national, mart'al, and festive
dances. The two males, who are remarkably active, excel in the
celebrated Gille Coullam, or Sword Dance ; and so extraordinary is
the muscular development of the eldest that he can with ease carry
two 561 b. weights about the room. He and his brother exhibit all
the positions of the broadside exercise with a precision that would do
honour to the first school of fence. And in addition to their other
accomplishments, they, in conjunction with their sister, sing the
beautiful airs of their native glens with exquisite taste and feeling.
As Mr. Mackenzie. who has these singular creatures under his
protection, can (in consequence of his other engagements) remain but
a sivat time In town, the admirers of the wonderful in nature are
requested to pay an early visit.

THE NEW HOUSES.-GREAT SEN-
SATION.
'Tie really surprising to see what is done
By the public—in favour of MOSES and SON.
Not only do thousands with wondering eyes
Behold the gigantic establishment rise,
But thous muds on thousands in multitudes press
To pun•hase E. MOSES and SON'S summer dress.
The public seem bent on a noble endeavour
To back Messrs. MOSES and SON more than ever.
And why this astounding amount of success ?
Because in return they are studied in dress.
Would torrents of patrenage constantly flow
If the public derived no: advantages?-No.
In price, and in style, and in quality, too,
E. MOSES and SON are resolved to out do ;
And that's why the public have thus done their part
To MOSES and SON at their spacious new Mart.
A New Work, entitled " Past, Present, and Future," with full
directions for self-measurement, may be had on application, or

SALMON, ODY, and CO. caution the Public
against the numerous pretended new inventions for ruptures ;
all of them are old, and are mentioned in Arnaud's Treatise on Rup-
tures, published at Paris in 1748. No essential improvement was
made from that date until Salmon's invention in 1806, which has
been, and continues to be, recommended by the most eminent surgeons
in town and country. Salmon, Ody, and Co.'s PATENT SELF-
ADJUSTING TRUSSES will answer for right or left side, requiring
no under-strap, buckles, or any galling bandage; they admit of in-
crease and decrease in size and force.
N.B.—Persons in the country are requested to send the circum-
ference of the body one inch below the hips.

REVIEWS OF THE WORK.

" The author of this singular and talented work IS a legally q
fled medical man, who has evidently had considerable experience in
the treatment of the various disorders arising from the follies and
frailties of early indiscretion. The engravings are an invaluable ad-
dition, by demonstrating the consequences of excesses, which must
act as a salutary warning to youth and maturity, and by its perusal
many questions may be satisfactorily replied to, that admit of no ap-

DIABOLICAL AFFAIR.

ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION.—About a month ago
a parcel, containing fruit, sugar, &c., addressed to Mr..
Alexander Ritchie, millwright, at Messrs. Randolph,
Elliot, and Co.'s, Centre-street, Tradeston, arrived in
this city from Paisley, and was promptly taken to its"
destination by the Glasgow Parcel Delivery Company.
The party to whom the parcel was addressed not having
been found, it lay in the Parcel Delivery Company's
office, Miller-street, in the expectation that an owner for
it would yet appear. The contents beginning to melt and
destroy the paper in which it was wrapped, they were put
carefully into a jug, and set aside, while the address
was luckily preserved. The latter end of last week, a
small oblong 13,Qx,_,adfle..--zed in the same hand-writing
to the same party, at Messrs. P. and J. M'Onie's, Scot-
land-street, Tradeston, came through the same channel
and was duly delivered. The box was taken home by the
young man, who, in removing the cloth in which it was
wrapped, found written upon a card directions how the
box was to be opened so as not to injure the alleged
valuable contents. These directions he followed so far
as to draw the screw-nails, with which the box lid was
fastened, with a " driver." While pulling one of the
nails, something gave way inside, when the young man,
considering he had injured or destroyed some part or
other of this present, which had excited such high hopes,
wrenched off the lid in presence of his wife, when, hor-
rible to relate, the box was found to contain about one
pound and a half of gunpowder, a number of small stones,
with a lock and part of the stock of a pistol. A wire at-
tached the trigger to one of the nails, which, upon being
drawn, was no doubt expected to ignite the contents, and
spread death around. Luckily, however, this monstrous
attempt to assassinate an innocent family was frustrated;
for although the trigger was drawn, and the cock fell, no
explosion took place. The escape will appear more won-
derful when we add, that upon the stock with the lock
attached being removed from the box, and the trigger
again drawn, the cap then exploded. An investigation
into this extraordinary affair has been instituted by the
authorities at Paisley, who, we hope, will be successful
in discovering the authors of this diabolical plot to
injure, if not destroy, several individuals. Upon the
above circumstances becoming known, it was suspected,
and we believe not without cause, that the first parcel
contained poison, and it was therefore taken out to
Paisley to be analysed, but we have not yet learned the
result.— Glasgow Herald.
