MAILS FOR AMERICA VIA CORK.

The arrangement made in November last for the
British contract packets conveying the mails be-
tween this country and North America, to call at
Queenstown (Cork), on every alternate voyage, for
the purpose of embarking and landing mails, will
be extended at the end of this month to the other
voyages performed by those packets ; that is, to the
voyages of the packets between Liverpool and New
York.

The packet appointed to leave Liverpool for New
York on Saturday, the 31st March next, will call
at Queenstown, and thenceforth the whole of the
British and North American contract packets,
whether on the line between Liverpool and Boston
via Halifax, or on the line between Liverpool and
New York, leaving Liverpool every Saturday, will
touch at Queenstown on each voyage outward and
homeward.

The regulations which have hitherto been in force
for the transmission via Queenstown of correspon-
dence by the British packets on the line between
Liverpool and Boston, will be equally applicable in
future to the correspondence conveyed by the Bri-
tish packets on the line between Liverpool and
New York.

PREPAYMENT OF LETTERS FOR EGYPT
On the Ist April next, and thenceforward, all
letters intended to be forwarded by British packet,
either vi: Marseilles or via Southampton, to Alex-
andria, Cairo, or Suez, which are posted unpaid,
will be charged with an additional rate of sixpence
each letter, besides the usual postage ; and letters
for those places posted insufficiently prepaid will
also be charged with the amount deficient and with
sixpence additional.

The prepa3:m(nt of postage upon letters for all
other parts of Egypt has hitherto been, and will
remain, compulsory.

ESCAPE FRO:NI A TIGER.—On Wednesday a lad
in the Clifton Zoological Gardens amused himself with
kicking the bars of the tiger's cage, when the animal sud-
denly caught his foot and drew it between the rails. The
boy, terrified, tugged mightily, and was lucky enough to
draw the foot out, though somewhat lacerated, leaving the
boot in the tiger's possession.

died with ease and certainty by ITEnaffiG's Patent Magnetic
Brushes and Combs. Their use is an absolute luxury. His
newly-invented Teazle Brushes for Colth, 'Velvet, ke,. are
admirable—they not oily cleanse, but preserve the fabric in
a remarkable manner. The Manufactory is 32, Basin:hall-

[AnvEnTisEstENv.]—Mr. Benson, Ludgate-hill, has just
published anew illustrated pamphlet en watches (free by post
for two stamps). It should be read by all who are about
buying a watch, as it contains prices and important informa-
tion as to—What watch to buy I where to buy it I and how to
use it!

[AnvEßTlSEmENT.]—Holloway's Pills and Ointment.
—Spring Changes.—ln the spring many persons otherwise
remarkably healthy, often suffer from cracked lips, rough
skin, pimples, and blotches. All suffering from such causes
will find their appearance and comfort both restored by the
use of Holloway's preparations, which may be used without
fear : as nothing in the Ointment could injure the most deli-
cate skin, nothing in the Pills could disagree with the most
feeble constitution. The Ointment immediately cools and
relieves the irritation ; the rigs purify the blood; both act
energetically on the cutaneous functions. They likewise set.
the digestion in order, strengthen the stomach, and regulate
the liter and kidneys. These disorders disappear from the
interior as the disfigurements departfrom the skin.
