THE SOUTH LONDON TRADESMEN.—The number
of weights, measures, scales, and weighing machines found
by the inspectors in South London to be deficient from
April, 1865, to March, 1867, inclusive, is as follows :
Weights, 2,091; measures, 1,877; scales and weighing-
machines, 803 ;—total, 4,771. The profits accruing to the
tradesmen, and the consequent loss to the customers, from
such a state of matters must have been enormous.—South
London Press.

Those who are anxious to see specimens of the
Irish piko, which has now become to some degree a
national weapon, inasmuch as it was made the most pro-
minent instrument of war in the insurrection of 1798 and
in the risings of 1848 and 1867, may gratify their curiosity
by a visit to the Crystal Palace. There are on exhibition
two of these pikes, one taken in '9B and the other in '67.
There is little difference between them in construction,
except that the one made more recently is, as may
be anticipated, more carefully finished than the other. The
top of the weapon is of steel, and resembles that of the lance
used in the British army. This is fitted on a long pole, to
which it is fastened, the arrangement altogether being of
the simplest description. The specimens shown at the
Palace have neither the battle-axe, which some of the
pikes of the last century possessed, nor the hook, which
was intended, among other purposes, for cutting the
eather bridles of the cavalry horses.
[ADVERTISEMENT.]—HoIIoway's Ointment and Pills are
an infallible remedy for bad legs and all kinds of wounds.
The surprising sale of these invaluable medicines in every
part of the civilised world is the most convincing proof of
their efficacy. They speedily cure bad legs, old wounds,
scrofula, and diseases of the skin. Thousands of persons
suffering from these dreadful maladies have been cured by
these medicaments after every other means had failed, and
it is a fact beyond all doubt that there is no case, however
obstinate or however long standing, but may bo quickly
relieved and ultimately cured by these wonderful medicines.
Their united action is irresistible. More need not be said
in their praise. Let those who doubt their excellence give
them a trial.
