tel for Marylebone and Paddington was held on Thursday.
ur. Tatham, the secretary, announced that the -Bishop of
London, Mr. Thistlethwayte, and the other trustees of the
?addington estate, had given a piece of land near the reser-
voir of the West Middlesex Waterworks Company for a site
for the proposed hospital; and that Mr. Thistlethwayte had
made a donation of 1,0001., in addition to a previous donation
of 1001. The value of the land was estimated at 2,000/., so
that there is now only wanting about 1,2001. to complete the
required sum of 15,0001. The amount of annual sub-
scribers, in addition to the subscriptions, for the establishment
of the institution, already exceeds 4001.

A IVONDBIti? L CURE BY HOLLOWAY'S PILLS
AND OINTMENT.—Edward White, residing at No. 45,,
Clement's-lane, Strand, was an in-door patient at King's.
College Hospital, for an abscess in the thigh, and a.
wound, nine inches long, on the same limb. He could
neither bend his knee nor put his foot to the ground.
He remained at the hospital five months in bed, when he
was informed "that nothing more could be done for him."
He was then carried to his home, and commenced using
the above invaluable medicines. He can now walk about
all the day long ; but, to complete the cure, he still uses
the remedies. Sold at Professor Holloway's establish-
ment, 224, Strand, where advice may be had gratis ; also
by all respectable venders of medicine throughout the
civilised world.

Ladies travelling, or temporarily subjected to any
deviation of equable temperature, will find in Rowland s
Kalydor a renovating and refreshing auxiliary, dispel-
ling the cloud of langour from the complexion, and
immediately affording the pleasing sensation attending
restored elasticity of the akin. The distressing and
unsightly varieties of cutaneous eruptions are also
promptly eradicated by the Kalydor. Spots, pimples,
freckles, discolourations, and sallowness, yield to its
specific qualities, and are succeeded by a smoothness
and transparency of the skin, giving rise to sensations
of the utmost pleasure and surprise. Being universally
preferred, its consequent great demand excites the
cupidity of unprincipled shopkeepers, who give the title
of " Genuine" Kalydor to some compounds of their own
manufacture, of the most deleterious character, con-
taining mineral astringents utterly ruinous to the
complexion, and by their repellant action endangering
health. It is, therefore, imperative on purchasers to
see that the words " Rowland's Kalydor" are on the
wrapper. All others are fraudulent counterfeits !I !
We understand that the new Lord Lieutenant of
Ireland, Lord Heytesbury, accompanied by his private secre-

and the Hon. Miss A'Court are not expected to leave Queen
Ann -street for the Viceregal Lodge until the end of the en •
suing month.
