ADVERTISEMENT.] llolloway's Ointment and PiBS.--
In all outward complaints a desperate effort should be made
to remove them before wintry weather augments the difa-
culty of establishing a cure. Tho remarkable remedies
discovered by Professor Holloway will satisfactorily ac-
complish this desired result without any of those dangers
or drawbacks which attended the old method of treating
ulcerations, inflammations, scrofulous affections, and scor-
butic annoyances. The most timid invalid may use both
the ointment and pills with the utmost safety and most
certain success, provided a moderate attention be bestowed
on their accompanying directions. Both these prepara-
tions soothe, heal, and purify. Tho one assists the other
most materially in effecting cures and renewing strength t
by helping exhausted nature just when she needs soma
succour.

NEW YORK, Oct. 8 (Evening.)
Secretary M'Culloch has written a letter stating

that he considers the faith of the National Govern-
ment pledged to the payment of the Five-Twenty
United States Bonds in coin. He believes that the
bonds are not to be called in at the expiration of
five years from their respective dates of issue, and
that Congress will not be called upon to make
further issues of legal tender. Mr. Spinner, the
N atioual Treasurer, emphatically denies the recent
reports of over-issues of National Securities. The
debt of the United States on tho Ist inst. was
$2,630,000,000. There were $103,000,000 in gold
and $30,000,000 currency in the Treasury.

The Attorney-General has furnished an opinion
sustaining the action of the Courts in the recent
habeas corpus case in Philadelphia. Secretary
Welles has in consequence ordered the writ to be
obeyed.

It is stated that the Government will certainly
be prepared to proceed with the trial of Mr. Davis
on the fourth Monday in November.

The Democrats carried nearly all the municipal
elections in Connecticut yesterday.
The New York Herald states that some promi-
nent Republicans are endeavouring to effect a com-
promise with Mr. Johnson.

General Sherman has arrived at Washington,
and has had an interview with President Johnson
and General Grant. It is reported that the Presi-
dent telegraphed for him, and offered him the
Secretaryship of War.

General Sheridan has been enthusiastically re-
ceived at Boston. A military escort and torch-
light procession were formed in his honour.
Intelligence from Mexico reports that Baron von

A Berlin letter endeavours to refute the rumours'
according to which the new Constitution of the
Confederation of the North is to provide also for]
the event of a Union with the Southern States. TIA
writer affirms that Prussia does not dream at pre-'
sent of extending its dominion south of the Maine-1
The sole question will be to establish on new bases,
the mode of distributing the revenues of thei
Zollverein, of which the States of the South.;
continue to form part. The letter adds, how-
ever :—" If these, or some among theta,
should desire to take the negotiations for this
purpose as a starting point for ulterior conferences
respecting the csnunon defence, it is probable that
Prussia would not repel them ; but, once more, there
is not and cannot be any question as to the entrance
of the South German States into the Confederation
of the North. The reasons assigned some Halal
since have not lost their validity. It cannot be for the
interest of Prussia to weaken the dominant positioa
she holds in that body in increasing its individual
elements by the entrance into it of the States of the
South."

" Fortune favours the brave," and now, after 18
months' fighting, we find ourselves in a better con-

dition than when wo began.

Since the glorious

victory of Curupaity the utmost enthusiasm prevails
throughout the country, and large contingents are

daily arriving to share the glories of the campaign.
A grateful shower of rain has succeeded the long

drought, and all our ditches are full.

Arvid the thousand joyful emotions of victory I
have not the coolness requisite to give you further
details.

The Lyons and Mediterranean Railway have
drawn up an official account of the accident which
I mentioned. It appears from this statement that
the number of killed was 14, and not 12, as was
first supposed. Five were Baden soldiers, and the
rest commercial travellers and persons employed on
the Railway.

The Siecle, alluding to the advice given to the
Emperor Maximilian, by the. French General, to
abdicate, treats that result as almost an accomplished
fact, there being now only a " few formalities" to
fulfil. " Whether 'he should abdicate in favour of
young Iturbide," says the Siecle, " or depart purely
and simply, the abdication must take place."

bad better use their own line. The bridge at Cal-
cutta would cost £1,500,000, and he believed that
would save a large outlay at Howrah if it was
completed in the first instance, which would enable
them to construct a much better terminal station in
Calcutta than at Howrah.

The report was unanimously adopted. The direc-
tors were authorised to pay, in addition to the gua-
ranteed interest on the capitalandcompany's shares
out of surplus profits for the half-year ending the
30th of June, ;1866, a dividend at the rate of 10s.
per cent. per annum, free of income tax.
On the motion of the CHAIRMAN, seconded by
Mr. NOAD, the directors were authorised to convert
all fully paid-up shares into consolidated stock of
the company.

Mr. ADAMS moved a resolution approving the
election of Mr. Noad to a seat at the Board, and
suggesting that £5,000 be presented to him in
acknowledgment of his services. (No, no.)

The CHAIR3IAN explained that there was a fund
of £42,000 at the disposal of the shareholders quite
independent of the Government guarantee.
On the suggestion of Mr. FRANKLIN, Mr. Adams
withdrew his motion, substituting one, which was
carried, to the effect that the meeting cordially con-
curred with the directors in the appointment of Mr.
Noad as managing director, and with a view to
express their appreciation of his valuable services
requested the directors to present him with a suit-
able sum for that purpose out of the funds of the
company.

➢lr. NOAD, having returned thanks for the hand-
some manner in which he bad been elected to the
Board, said he valued it more than any money they
might vote to him. They were indebted to the great
exertions of Sir M. Stephenson, to Mr. Chas. Fresh-
field, Mr. Chapman, Mr. Nicholson, and Mr. Frank-
lin, who had all ably assisted him in bringing about
the formation of the present great undertaking.

that the directors be authorised to pay the arrears
of annuity due to Sir M. Stephenson out of the fund
of £42,000 at the disposal of the company. He be-
lieved the arrears amounted to about £14,000.
The motion having been seconded,

Sir M. STEPIIENSON briefly explained the circum-
stances of the original grant of the annuity of 1853,
and the advances subsequently authorized by the
proprietors to be paid out of the reserve fund, and
stated, with reference to the course now proposed,
that it would be the more acceptable to him because
it would in no way affect the guaranteed interest,
or the amount of surplus profits divisible among the
shareholders.

The resolution was then carried unanimously.
On the motion of Mr. WILSON, a vote of thanks
to the chairman and directors concluded the pro-

cecdings.

Bombay Products at the Paris Exhibition.

Bombay is likely to be well; represented at the
Paris International Exhibition next year, Govern-
ment having devoted 3,000/. towards defraying the
expenses of forwarding articles for exhibition there.

These will consist of native productions from all
parts of the presidency, and it is to be hoped that
their exhibition will lead to the opening up of a
larger trade than yet exists in various descriptions
' of Indian produce. As many of our readers are
aware, a large collection of splendid blackwood
furniture has been on exhibition in the Town Hall
for some months past, and this furniture is intended
to be the first instalment of the consignments from
Bombay. It is now being packed •up, and next
month it will be sent by-one of the Peninsular Com-
pany's steamers to Marseilles, whence it will be for-
warded to Paris. The other contributions will be
despatched either during December or January, in
order that they may reach the Exhibition in good
time. In addition to the black wood furniture we
have mentioned the contributions will consist of
inlaid work and carved sandal-wood articles from
Bombay, agate work from Cambay, sandal-wood
carvings from Carwar, and black wood carvings from
Ahmedabad. From the last-named place there will
also be specimens of silver plate, kincob brocade,
silk and cotton manufactures, pottery, native shields,
raw produce, and native agricultural implements.
Sawuntwarrie will exhibit embroidery and turned
work. Surat will send carved work in sandal-wood,
inlaid work, toys, agricultural implements, cotton
and silk manufactures,
kincobs, together with a
number of miscellaneous articles, including iron ore,
preserved ginger, &e. Dharwar will contribute
specimens of its manufactures in cotton and in silk,
in brass work, in ornaments and jewellery, such as
are worn by native ladies, together with some cotton
and other agricultural products. Ahmednuggur
will exhibit the same kind of produce from every
collectorate, along with specimens of its carpets,
leather work, gold and silver jewellery, and native
fire arms. From Belgaum there will be a display

from all parts are admitted, the only condition being that
they are homeless and starving. The Manager &c.,
receives no remuneration whatever. Notwithstand-
ing the provision made by the Poor Houses, each
night numbers of young women, children, and orphans
tre, for want accommodation, refused admittance, and have
to spend night after night in the cold, wet, and sleet. To
meet this evil, and to provide more ample accommoda-
tion, £2,000 has been raised, but to accomplish the
work a sum of at least £l,OOO more will be required.
Besides providing shelter for the homeless, this year it
is proposed, as far as the donations obtained for the pur-
pose will allow, to give bread and coals to poor families
in want. Will you, in your charity, help to carry on and
accomplish what has been begun ? Will you help to give
shelter to the really homeless, and food to the really
starving ? The smallest donation will bo most welcome,
and, night and morning, the prayers of the destitute will
be offered in your behalf.
SUBSCRIPTIONS are earnestly requested, and will be
gratefully received by the Roy. D. GrawnT D.D.,
