THE LONDON BRIDGE TRAFFIC.—III 10 years the
number of persons passing through London-bridge station
has increased from 624,000 to 13,500,0001 Here we have
the increased pressure at this point at once accounted for.
The great bulk of these railway passengers are proceeding to
and from the City and the western parts of London, and
must, therefore, cross the Thames by one or other f the
bridges. At least nine-tenths of the whole cross the nearest,
which is London-bridge--nearly 30,000 on foot, 10,000 in
cabs, and the remainder in omnibuses. It has further been
ascertained, by careful inquiry, that a large proportion of
those railway travellers who cross the bridge are destined for
parts west of Holborn and Temple-bar ; and hence, to reach
their destinations, they have to pass through the City
thoroughfares in cabs, carriages, and omnibuses, the humbler
classes mostly proceeding westward by the river boats plying
to and from Hungerford-pier. The extent to which the
thoroughfares are crowded by this flow of traffic west-
ward may be inferred from the fact that 2,010 omnibus jour-
neys are daily performed between London-bridge
station
and places west of Temple-bar, the whole of which pass
through the City by the Poultry and Cheapside.—The

Scarlatina, Diphtheria, Putrid Sore Throat.—These These diseases
are constitutional, displaying themselves locally,th
severity of the throat attack depend: more
re on the nagenerael
fever than on local inflammation. At this season
the fever
in Scarlatina is extremely typhoid, and the ulcerated throat
is 'consequently very malignant. According to the report
of the Registrar-General, on Friday, it is fearfully fatal.
Three times more deaths are there weekly ascribed to this
formidable malady than have been registered to it since
1845. In this, as in the kindred local affections named
above, Holloway's Ointment and Pills prove a sheet anchor,
holding the partial wreck in safety till nature quells the
storm and the sinking frame is rescued.'
[ADTERTISEMENT.—Rarey's Horse and Cattle Improv-
ing Food is equally adapted to improve the stamina of ill-
conditioned Horses, Cows, Bullocks, Calves, Sheep, arid
Pigs. It causes no extra expense, as it contains far more
and better nourishment than its cost of lid. per feed sup-
plies in corn and hay ; hence ensures an actual saving in
the keep. But its principal advantages are a great im-
provement in the digestive functions, the stamina and
general condition of horses enabling them to perform far
more labour without getting distressed. It imparts new
vigour to sick, debilitated, or old apparently worn-but
horses, and it puts rapidly the finest flesh on cattle gene-
rally, and improves the milk in cows, as it enables them to
extract the entire nourishment out of everything they feed
on. Rarev and Co., 77, Regent's Quadrant, Piccadilly,
