Pmus, May 27.

The official journal of this morning publishes an
Imperial decree, dated the Bth inst., approving on
grounds of public utility a telegraphic line to be
established between Poulizar and Brest, the same
to serve as a land line in continuation of the sub-
marine cable between France and the United States.
The decree gives full powers to Baron Erlanger of
Paris, and Mr. Julius Reuter of London for the
acquisition of the land necessary for the construc-
tion of that line.

MADAME TUSSAUD'S.—Among the most interest-
ing. sights of the metropolis during the Whitsuntide Un-
days none appeared to be more generally patronised, and
gave greater satisfaction to the sightseers, than the re-
nowned and popular wax work galleries in Baker-street,
The exhibition has been crowded with visitors ; and the
sombre chamber of horrors, containing, as it does, models
of most of the notorious criminals who expiated their
crimes on the gallows, appeared to be not the least attrac-
tive to the sightseers.

The traffic of the Grand Trunk Railway of Ca-
nala for the week ending the Bth instant was
.£32,605, being £5,119 more than in the corre •
sponding week of last year.

[ ADVERTISEMENTd— llama* Pills.—Liver Com-
plaints and Disorders of the Bowels.—lt is impossible to
exaggerate the extraordinary virtues of this medicine in
the treatment of all affections of the liver or irregularities
of the bowels. In case of depraved or superabundant bile
the Pills taken freely have never been known to fail. In
bowel complaints they are equally efficacious, but they
should then be taken rather more sparingly, for every me-
dicine in the form of an aperient requires caution when
the bowels are disordered, though a gentle or more genial
aperient than these Pills, in moderate doses, has never yet
been discovered. If taken according to the printed in-
kructions they not only cure the complaint, but improve-
the whole system.
