The news rooms at Dover provided by the South-
Eastern Railway Company for the examination of baggage
were on Tuesday taken possession of by the officers of Cus-
toms; and henceforth the luggage of passengers will be
conveyed direct to the railway station, and a saving both
of time and expense effected. This accommodation has
been afforded by the railway authorities with the sanction
of the Board of Customs.

TWA' NEW CHANCERY APFCHNTMENTS.—Yesterday
or, according to the words of the Act, " from and after the
Ist of October," the powers of the Lord Chancellor vested
in the Court of Appeal. Although her Majesty was em-
I powered to appoint two persons on the passing of the Act
to the office of "Lords Justices," no appointment has been
officially announced. It is, however, reported that Lord
Cranworth and Sir James Knight Bruce (with a title) have
been appointed. They have, however, not been sworn in,
and the delay, it is believed, has occurred in consequence of
the Vice-Chancellorship. It is understood that neither the
Solicitor-General nor Mr. Bethell will accept the Vice-
Chancellorship, and the appointment, it is expected, will
either be given to Mr. Swanston, a very able equity lawyer,
or to one of the Masters in Chancery. If to the latter, then
another vacancy of 2,5004 a-year will occur. By the Act
the Lords Justices must be sworn in before the Lord Chan-
cellor or the Master of the Rolls.
ALLEGED MURDER.-012 Tuesday night Mr. Payne
held au inquest on the body of Ann Sarah Parker, whose
husband was on Monday charged at the Worship-street
Police-court with causing her death by violence. The evi-
dence of the surgeon was heard in addition to that of some
other witnesses, after which the jury returned as their ver-
dict that " Death was caused by effusion of blood on tho
brain, but whether such effusion was produced by her hus-
band's assault there is no evidence to show."
A melancholy accident occurred at St. Just West,
Penzance, on Sunday last. A party had been out shooting.,
and had returned, when, as one of them, named Thomas
Wembath, who was trying to draw the charge from his gun,
by some means the gun went off, and the whole charge en-
tered his mouth, and blew his head to atoms. Ile was
soon placed on a plank and carried to his home, about a
mile distant, where he had in the morning left a wife and
three children.

Kiss's "AMAZON."—Mr. Digby Wyatt, in writing
on this work of genius, says that in it " the boldest concep-
tion and treatment of a grand idea are tempered by an ex-
quisite appreciation of beauty and refinement of execution,"
and that it is probably the noblest work of art now existing
in which man has displayed the mastery his intelligence
has enabled him to gain over the " stubborn metals."
[ADVERTISEMENT.] Holloway's Ointment and
Pills the most extraordinary Remedy known for curing Skin
Diseases.—Mr. A. G. Rehme, residing at Paramaribo, in
South America, states, in a letter addressed to Professor Hol-
loway, that he was troubled for about four years with an erup-
tion on the skin that defied the skill of the most eminent
medical men of the place to cure or alleviate • in despair ho
had recourse to Holloway's Ointment and Pills,' and with such
good results that, after using them for a short time, he was
completely cured, and he has ever since been in the enjoyment
of perfect health. These medicines are also infallible for
scalds and burns.—Sold by all druggists, and at Professor
Holloway's Establishment, 244, Strand, London,

B-I.OOMERISM IN LivEnrooL.—The new style of
female dress, known as Bloomerism, has extended to this
town. On Wednesday a young lady, arrayed in the new
costume, was seen walking from Lime 'street, through Wil-
liamson-square, to the foot of Bold-street, where our in-
formant gave up the pursuit. She Wore a puce-coloured
tunic, of some silken material, reaching to the knee, with
Turkish inexpressibles. She was accompanied by a female
friend, in the ordinary costume. They of course attracted a
good deal of observation, but no insult or annoyance wets
offered by any one.—Liverpool AZircury.
