The horse fair just heid at Liege was better at-
tended than for years past. A great number of
fine horses were disposed of at high prices. Many
foreign dealers were present.
A melancholy accident occurred on the 11th on the
Genoa and Pontedeeinio railway, when the wife of a
switchman, having been iunprudeut, uuuugha to erode the
line while the train was cot..ning at full speed, was over-
taken and killed on the spot.
As the master of a fishing boat was two days ago pur-
suing his avocations, about five miles north of Cape
Antifer, he perceived part of the hull of a vessel drift-
ing near him. He immediately steered towards it
with the intention of taking it in tow into Etretat,
but finding that he could not manage it he stranded
it on the nearest part of the coast he could reach,
which was near Fahamp, On examination of the
wreck it was found to be a pant of the starboard
side of a vessel, and measured twenty-six metres in
length. Os a copper plate affixed to one of the ribs
were the words "Hopwood and Armstrong, London,
registered June, 1550." On one of the planks the mas-
ter of the fishing boat, when be first discovered the
wreck, distinctly made, out the word "Woodcock,
which was probably the name of the vessel ; but when
the wreck grounded this plaak could not be found, or
the letters which were painted had been rubbed off. All
that can be saved of this piece of wreck v; ill be deposited
in charge of the custom-house authorities at F4co:rnp.
ADVERTISE:IEN T.]—Holloway's Ointment and Pills
wonderful Remedies for the Cure of Scorbutic Eruptions.
—Mr. J. Hobbs, of Newton Abbot, states, in a letter to
Professor Holloway, that Mrs. Stabb, residing at Det-
tishano, was for several years afflicted with scorbutic
affections in her legs, and in a most deplorable condi-
tion. She was attended by several medical men, who
pronounced that nothing more could be done for her.
However, by the use of Holloway's ointmeßt and pills,
and a strict attention to the directions, a complete
cure has been effected. Sold by all medicine vend-
ors throughout the world ; at Professor Holloway's es-

GLAWES. —Messrs. S, and B. Solomon, opticians, 39, Albe-
marle-street, Piccadilly. Observo—opposite the York Hotel.
By ker Majesty's Royal Letters Patent for valuable and
extraordinary improvements in the most powerful and
brilliant Telescopes, Camp, Racecourse, Opera, and Per-
spective Glasses, to know the distances of objects viewed
through them—of great importance to the army, navy,
and others. These telescopes possess such extraordinary
powers that some three and a-half inches, with an extra eye-
piece, show distinctly Jupiter's moons, Saturn's ring,
and the double stars; with the same telescope can be
seen a person's countenance three miles and a half distant,
and an object from 16 to 20 miles. They are of larger and all
sizes, with increasing powers accordingly ; while their vary-
ing from? 4 to 6 inches enable us to discover more than the
above and the Georgian, with Isis 6 satellites, ke,___Th, Royal
Exhibition, 1851.—Valuable, newly-invented, very small,
powerful waistcoat-pocket glass,the size of a walnut, by which
a person can be seen and known 1 i miles distant ; they answer
every purpose on the race-course, and at the opera houses,
country scenery, and ships are clearly seen at 8 to 10 miles.
They are invaluable for shooting, deer-stalking, yachting, to
sportsmen, gentlemen, gamekeepers, and tourists: Opera,
race-course, camp, and perspective glasses, with wonderful
power. Newly-constructed Spectacle Lenses of the great-
est transparent power. The valuable advantage derived
from this invention is, that vision becoming impaired is
preserved and strengthened, and very aged persons aro
enabled to employ their sight at the most minute occu-
pation— can see with these lenses of a much less magnify-
ing power—and they do not require the frequent changes
to the dangerous effects of further powerful assistance.
Deafness—New Discovery.—The Organic Vibrator, an ex-
traordinary powerful, small, newly-invented instrument for
deafness, entirely different from all others, to surpass any-
thing of? the kind that has been, or probably ever nan be,
produced. Being of the same colour as the skin, is not per.
ccptible ; it enables deaf persons to hear distinctly at church
and at public assemblies ; the unpleasant sensation of singing
tnieee lu the ears is entirely removed ; and it affords all the
assistance that possibly could be desired.---39, Albemarle-
