exercise more especially the most salutary influence over
the liver and the bile. In nausea, sick. headache, restless-
ness, tremors, and all the long list of nervous complaints
Holloway's pills are deemed specifics, and have completely
won the public confidence. In mental and bodily debility
these pills strike at the root of the evil by purifying the
whole mass of circulating blood, which, thus improved,
gives tone to the entire system.

T.ie present strength of the Indian depots at Col-
chester Camp, under the command of Col. Guy,
C. 8., is 62 officers and 1,700 rank and file. The
sanitary condition of the troops is satisfactory. The
hospital returns give the number of inmates as 120,
or 51 per cent., but none of the cases are of a seri-
ous nature. The last detachment of the 10th Depot
Battalion at Landguard Fort has been relieved by a
similar party during the week, and on the return of
these men the station will cease to be used during
the winter. The returns of the company firing,
which will soon be completed, are very satisfactory,
the number of points obtained both by companies
and depots being rather above the customary average.
The head-quarters of the 4th Brigade Field Artil-
lery are under orders to remove from Woolwich to
Aldershot on the 17th inst., in preparation for their
departure to Canada.

Sutherland, 13 sergeants, 2 trumpeters, 13 corporals,
154 privates, 14 women and 22 children. They
joined headquarters at Portsmout h. The ship sailed
from Kurrachee on the 27th of March last, and ar-
rived in Simon's Bay on the 6th of June. Previ-
ously to anchoring in Simon's Bay very heavy gales
were encountered, and large quantities of wreck
were seen. The ship was blown off the land for four
days subsequently to the anchorage being first seen.
The passage to St. Helena occupied 23 days, with
heavy weather all the way. The ship crossed the
line on the 17th Jaly. From the Equator a con-

The request was immediately complied with,
and a prize crew, headed by a captain, soon came
alongside the Henry Nutt, and ascended to her
deck. The papers 'of the vessel were then de-
manded, after which the captain and crew were
hustled very unceremoniously into the boat then
lying by the side of the Henry Nutt. When the
prize crew first reached the deck of the Henry
Nutt, Capt. Baker was in his slippers, and many
of the crew—all blacks--were in their bare feet.
The crew were immediately ordered into the boat,
and upon Captain Baker remonstrating, he alone
was allowed to draw on his boots. Previous to the
arrival of the crew, the cook, a negro on board, se-
cured all the money the captain had on board—
abaut 50 dols.—and hid it between two pieces of
mahogany stowed away beneath the deck.
After a short detention at the Inlet, Captain
Baker and the wife and child of the mate were
transferred to Newbern, and at the expiration of a
week the mate, the black cook, and the crew of
the Nutt were similarly disposed of. The crew
all this while were confined in a goal at Hatteras
Inlet, and the same treatment was bestowed upon
them after their arrival at Newbern. The captain,
his mate, and the wife and child of the latter were
allowed to stop at an hotel at that place.
Captain Baker informs us that the strength of
the rebels at Hatteras Inlet consists of six small
cannon, a rifled cannon of small size, and a sand

never falterod a moment, but examined•with a cri-
tical eye all the appliances prepared for his execu-
tion. And now occurred one of the most horrifying
and painful scenes in this terrible drama. When
once upon the scaffold, and his ancles being bound
together, the usual white cap was produced, and he
was informed that it was necessary to put it upon
his head. To this White objected, insisting that no
change should be made in his apparel. He wore
the little felt cap with which he had covered his
head from his first imprisonment. When the sheriff
removed the felt cap and was about substituting
the usual white one, the prisoner again objected, and
with fearful imprecations declared that it should not
be put on. Sheriff Black, in a decided tone, endea-
voured to persuade the prisoner, but in vain.
For nearly an hour the officers were engaged in a
struggle to enforce compliance. Here, indeed., was
the demoniac character of the prisoner displayed.

% concluding the report of their labours for the past
year, the board feel that it is proper again to advert to the
inadequacy of the funds placed at their disposal for effect-
ing the important improvements confided to their charge.
It will be seen that the imposition of the duties on coal and
wine has been limited to a period of ten years, and that
the embankment of the Thames has been made a first
charge on those funds; but it appears to the board exceed-
ingly doubtful whether the entire proceeds of those sources
