11/HITE'S MOC-MAIN LEVER TRUSS
(Perfected and Exhibited in the Great Exhibitions
of 1851 and 1862) is allowed by upwards of Two Hundred
Medical Gentlemen to be the most effective invention in
the curative treatment of HERNIA. The use of a steel
spring, so often hurtful in its effects, is here avoided - a
soft bandage being worn round the body, while the requi-
site resisting power is supplied by the Moo-Main Pad and
Patent Lever, fitting with so much ease and closeness that
it cannot be detected, and may be worn during sleep. A
descriptive circular may be had, and the truss, which can-
cot fail to fit, forwarded by post, on the circumference of
the body, two inches below the hips, being sent to the
manufacturer,

MONEL—No. I.

When we read that in ATHELSTAN'S reign an ox
sold for 30 pence and a sheep for one shilling, and
later far, though the citizens of London still trusted
for defence to their wall—that ducks, geese, fowls,
were offered in Cheapside for half pence, the ques-
tion is suggested—what these pence were compared
with those now circulated. Doubtless money has
materially fallen in value, but has the fall been so
great as represented by the price of the ox in the
time of ATHELSTAN, and its price in the time of
VICTORIA ? It cannot be said that money was
scarce and oxen plentiful, when the first Sovereign
of all England sat on the Throne from A.D. 924 to
940, as contrasted with the time of the reigning
Monarch, for if money has prodigiously increased
so have oxen. The 30 pence were not the pence of
to-day, and we know that the . old Roman penny
was equal to sevenpence halfpenny of our money.
The Anglo-Saxons coined inferior brass pieces
called stycas, of which two were equal to a
farthing, but we confess that we know nothing of
ancient British money, nor does it enter into our
subject. The English pound is of French origin,
being " CHARLEMAGNE'S" livre or pound weight of
silver, decreed by him A.D. 800 to be the standard
of his Empire. It was imposed on the English by
WILLIAM the CONQUEROR, the Tower pound taken
and stamped as the measure, bearing the date of
the Conquest, 1066. Twenty shillings which now
form our silver pound do not contain one-quarter
of that weight. In 1792 in decimalitizing the coin
of France, the livre of CHARLEMAGNE, dwarfed and
shrank in its career of ten centuries, disappeared
from the world. Gold was introduced into the
coinage of England by HENRY 111., who manu-
tured the pieces of almost pure metal, half a grain
only being alloy. HENRY VIII. debased their purity,
fabricating crowns, five shilling gold pieces, 22
carats, which has since continued to be the titan.
dard, pure gold being 24 carats. We are told that
this word carat came to us from Abyssinia, a weight
of that country, said to be a bean, the fruit of an
Abyssinian tree, which varies little in weight after
being gathered, and is issued in Africa to weigh
gold, and in India diamonds. Salt is said to he
the circulating medium in Abyssinia. Both stan-
dards continued to be used till 1633, when the pure
standard was discarded. Some of the silver pieces
during the time of HENRY 111. were depreciated
till they contained only a third part of fine metal,
but they were restored by ELIZABETH, and the
English silver standard has since remained un-.
touched. At the beginning of the present century,
according to lici/LBQLDT, tho Alavricau mines prow

UNIVERSITY OF LONDO.Y.

On Tuesday evening the adjourned annual meeting of
convocation of the University of London was held at Bur.
lington House, Dr. John Storrar in the chair. Mr. W.
S. Lean, 11.1. A., moved, and Mr. W. Shaen,
seconded, the following resolution :—" That it be au
instruction to the annual committee, either in con.
junction with the senate or separately, as may be
judged most expedient, to take any steps that
they may consider likely to aid in promoting the
improvement of secondary education in schools ; and,
especially to prepare, and cause to be presented to both
Houses of Parliament, petitions praying for early legisla-
tion having such improvement for its object ; and that
the chairman of convocation be authorised to sign those
petitions on behalf of convocation. A discussion ensued,
in which Mr. Bagehot, Mr. Hutton, Mr. Stevens, and
Mr. Moore took part, and eventually the resolution
was carried with the addition of these words : "It is the
will of convocation that a special committee of nine be
chosen to take any steps they may think proper to pro.
mote secondary education in schools." Mr. R. P. B.
Taaffe moved, " That, in the opinion of convocation, no
person ought to be admitted to any degree unless he has
previously studied at a college affiliated to the univer-
sity." Mr. Lynn seconded the motion, which was op.
posed by Mr. Chaplin, Mr. Nisbett, Mr. Osier, Mr. Bas.
sett, Mr. Turner, and other members of convocation,
and, upon a division, lost by a large majority. Mr,
Taaffe then moved, " That, in the opinion of convocation,
middle-class examinations similar to those of Oxford and
Cambridge should be instituted in connection with tha
University of London ; and that it be an instruction to
the annual committee to take the subject into considera-
tion." After a long and stormy discussion the motion was
withdrawn. An address of congratulation to her Majesty
the Queen on the escape of his Royal Highness the Duke
of Edinburgh from assassination was agreed to, and the
house adjourned.

faculty pronounce incurable, and admirably allays the
ticking which provokes frequent coughing. In approach-

deprived of sleep, or even lying down for fear of suffoca-
tion, may depend on relief in a few minutes after taking it.

This Hospital, founded in the year 1828, the first to
establish the principle of free admission to the sick poor,
without the delay and difficulty of Governors' orders, is
wholly dependent for support on voluntary contributions
and legacies.

It affords relief to a large number of in-patients, and, in
addition to this, the average number of attendance of the
destitute sick has for a considerable period averaged be-
tween 3,000 and 4,000 weekly.
The Committee earnestly solicit the assistance of the
benevolent, as the premises of this hospital aro capable of
containing several hundred more beds had the Committee
the requisite funds to maintain them.
Contributions are received by their bankers, Messrs.
Brown, Hansom, and Co., Abchurch-lane ; also by Messrs.
Coutts and Co.; Drummond and Co.; Glyn and Co„-
Herries and Co.; Ransom and Co. ; Prescott, Grote, and
Co.; Smith, Payne, and Co.; Barclay and Co.; Williams,

dating as early as the fifth century, exhibited at Paris, and
lent by the Roumanian Government to the South Kensing-

before its return to Bucharest.

FATAL BOILER EXPLOSION.—A fatal boiler ex-
plosion took place at South Pelew Colliery, in the county
of Durham, on Saturday morning. Mark Leathard, a
breaksman, was putting coals on the fire at the time, and
he was blown away and killed on the spot. Two or three
other persons were hurt, but not seriously. A lot of pit
lads had just left the fire hole, and had not got to the bottom
of the shaft when the boiler exploded. Had they been at
bank they would most likely all have been killed. The
boiler was one of four at bank used for driving the engine
which does the usual work there. The explosion did a
good deal of mischief to the buildings about.

parts, and in the first a sonnet was sung so charmingly by
the fair Swedish cantatrice that it was encored with
great enthusiasm, and the same mark of favour was ac-
corded to a charming capriccio, forming part of the ballet
music which is intercalated in the work. The perform-
once did not terminate until half-past twelve, two
entr'actes having been arranged, during which visits were

The hundreds of thousands of heads of Game reared on
my system during the last ten years proves its utility ; the
loss from every cause has not averaged three to the hun-
dred. Gapes and Roup (the two most fatal diseases which
attack game) the birds have been and always are free
from. This is attributable to their robnst constitution
and excellent condition. Pheasants fed on my loud show
their beautiful plumage with hardness and closeness of
feather to the greatest advantage; they cannot be sur-
passed.
The magnificent Foreign and English Pheasants at the
Zoological Society's Gardens, London, and his Imperial
Majesty's Pheasantry at Compiegne and St. Germains, are
fed with my food.

FORGING BAPTISMAL CERTIFICATES.

George Phillips was indicted for feloniously forg-
ing certain baptismal registers purporting to come
from the parish of Stanmore, and to be the signa-
ture of James Atkinson, perpetual curate.
The prisoner denied that he was the person who
committed the forgery, but the jury found him
guilty, and he was sentenced to 18 months' impri-
sonment with bard labour.

William Rawlings Lindley was indicted for a
similar offence, the object in Lis case being to make
himself of an age to enable him to enter into com-
petition for a Civil Service appointment. The forged
'certificate made him appear as 19, when his real
age was 25.
The prisoner pleaded guilty, and the Recorder
sentenced him to two months' imprisonment, his
case differing entirely from the foregoing.
