In the recent sitting of the Scientific Congress f
France at La Rochelle a resolution was adopted on the
proposition of Professor Baruffi, of the University of
Turin, to the effect that the cutting through of the Isth-
mus of Suez will be exceedingly useful to all nations,
and injurious to none, and that it is therefore desirable
that it may be promptly effected.
DVERTISEMENT.I—HoIIoway's Ointment and Pills
are infallible remedies for Abscesses.—Mr. Henry Rod-
well, of Great Canterbury-place, Lambeth, had been
tormented with a fearful abscess in the arm, so extensive
and deeply seated that his medical attendant despaired
of his ultimate recovery. He had been dismissed as in-
curable from three hospitals when he was re:ion:uncoiled
to make use of Holloway's Ointment and Pith, which
he did, and with such signal success that in one month
the abscess commenced healing, its virulence abated,
and shortly afterwards it was completely cured.- —Sold

provements in the manufacture of iron. and steel. Patent
dated Jan. 4,1856.
" Now the object of my present invention is the
more perfect and complete reinemont of the iron,
whereby it gradually loses the properties common to
ig
or crude iron, and acquires the properties of Cast steel,
or of pure or decarbonised iron, while it still pre:
serves such a state or fluidity as will admit of its bein,,
cast into ingots or other desired forms or articles by
the prams of founding. For which purpose I expose
the iron in a more divided or extended form to the
intense heat of the furnace or furnaces hereinafter de-
scribed and to the oxidising. action of a blast of air, by
eping such fluid metal in motion and continually bring_
fresh portions of it in contact with oxygen, and with

William Winder, constable, said—l received the razor
and haft, dress, coat, bat, and bonnet from Mr. Slater,
and now produce them. The razor and haft, which are
very strong, were coverel with blood and hair. The
bonnet was found out on the right side.
George Sanderson said—l am a shoemaker, and live
at Armlet'. Yesterday, about a quarter or .0 minutes
past 12 o'clock, I was coming up tie branch road, 200
or 300 yards from the Malt-mill, when I met Thomas
Jackson, calling out, " Stop him !" and on turning
round I saw some cue running. I pursued, and, along
with two others, chased the prisoner up to Castleton-
lodge, where he had been stopped by the gardener. We
told him be had stabbed a woman, and he said what he
had done he did not care for. She should not have
vexed him to do it. I told him he must go back with
us, and we brought him to the Bay Horse, Armley, and
while there a policeman came and took him in charge.
He came very quietly. ,

Mrs. Mary Anne Dixon, wicidtt' of a canon residen•
tiary of York, has presented two ancient silver tankards
to the corporation of null. One of them is a "whistle
tankard," which belonged to Anthony Lambert, mayor
of Hull, in 1669, when Charles I. was refused admission
to the town. Mrs. Dixon "has frequently been told
that there is only another whistle tankard in the king-
dom." The whistle comas into play when the tankard
is empty ; so that when it reaches the hands of a toper,
and there is nothing to drink, he must, if he wants
liquor, whistle for it ;" which possibly may he the
origin of tho popular phrase.

TIIE OUTRAGE AT BRENTWOOD.—BRENIWOOD, Fri-
day.—Yesterday the borough bench of magistrates (the
Rev. T. Ledbey in the chair) assembled at the Court-
house, for the purpose of investigating the charge against
two young gentlemen of independent property, named
Edmund amd Alfred Hoof, of being concerned in the
death of John George, a baker, of tbis town. The ma-
gistrates retired, and, after a short deliberation, the
chairman said their unanimous opinion was that the two
prisoners had aided and abetted in the offence for which
Cooper was to be tried. Tho prisoners were then com-
mitted for trial for manslaughter. Bail to the extent of
2,0001,
was accepted for their appearance at the ensuing
assizes.
