The Italian journals state that at Torre Annun-
ziata, near Naples, some women of the lower orders
a few days back carried statues of the saints in pro-
cession (notwithstanding the prohibition of the
authorities), to obtain from Heaven a cessation of

A man named Baltel was tried yesterday at the
Court of Assizes of the Seine for the murder of a fel-
low-workman, named Hubert, with whom he lodged.
Some words had taken place between them one even-
ing, after which they went to bed together, but during
the night, while Hubert was asleep, Baltel got up
and beat out his brains with a hammer, and then
again laid down and slept by the side of the corpse
until the morning. The accused attempted to show
that from the habitual use of strong drinks
he was at times deprived of his reason. The court,
nevertheless, condemned him to hard labour for
life.

BOURSE, Sept. 14.—Two o'clock.—The market
remains in the same state of almost utter stagnation.
Quotations, which are a little lower, are again
hardly more than nominal. The few transactions
which take place only have the effect of making
more conspicuous the absence of the ordinary run
of business. French Threes were done at 70f. 5c.,
or 10c. lower ; Italian Fives at 57f. 30c., or a de-
cline of 20c. ; Mobilier at 675 f., or a loss of 2f. 50c. ;
Credit Foncier at 1,372 f. 50c., also a fall of 2f.
50e. ; Comptoir d'Escompte at 915 f., unchanged.
Very little is doing in railways, and the tendency
is downward. Three o'clock.—A still further de-
cline has taken place, the closing prices being as
follows :

FATAL ACCIDENT IN THE STRAND.—Last night
Mr. St. Clair Bedford, coroner for the city and
liberties of Westminster, held an inquest at the Charing-
cross Hotel, on the body of Thomas Cribbin, a bricklayer,
who fell from the parapet of the International newspaper-
office, 76, Strand, and who was killed on the spot. It ap-
peared from the evidence of deceased's brother, and Thos.
Cummings, a fellow-workman, that ho was engaged on
Wednesday last in repairing a stack of chimneys at the
International office. At 12 o'clock, the dinner hour, he was
in a hurry to get away, and when Cumming called to him to
bo careful he shuffled along the parapet, and when the
former looked round he had disappeared. Tho supposition
is that he caught the solo of his boot, which was loose, in
a part of the coping, and was precipitated into the street.
According to the evidence of Mr. George Allen, house
surgeon at Charing-cross, the left side of his head was
fractured and his right leg broken. He died before admis-
sion to the hospital. The jury returned a verdict of acci-
dental death.

and after consulting all the most eminent medical men in

hope for comfort on this side of the grave, until some lucky
accident has called their attention t 9 Holloway's Pills and
Ointment. These aro genuine, indeed ! Persons bedrid-
den for months with rheumatic pains and swellings, after
