the province of a Directory. The care and minute attention with
which the work has evidently been got up cannot but recommend
it to very extensive public patronage. A considerable quantity of
master not contained in its predecessors has been added to this publi-
cation, and the whole is neatly and cleverly printed."
Morning Post, December 9, 1843.—" The new (di' ion of the Post
Office London Directory' for the ensuing year has just been com-
pleted, being the 45th annual publication. It contains the names of
a vast number of new people engaged in commerce and trade of
every description. No relaxation appears to have t :ken place in the
efforts ofthe proprietors to render this a most useful and indisp
nen.
sable volume. The amalgamation of the nobility, gentry, merchats,
and traders in the Street Directory' is a most excellent plan, and
the Law Courts and Parliamentary divisions have been corrected up
to the most recent possible date ; the latter, especially, are brought
down to a periol as recent as the Salisbury election. The
Postal Directory' contains the latest regulations, and appears
have been arranged in a form at once comprehensive and easy of
reference."
Morning Herald. December 6, 1843.—" This Directory may he
considered a ne plus ultra in its way. Like Aaron's rod when
changed into a serpent, it has swallowed up all that resembled it, its
principal antagonist, the Directory of Robson, having officially suc-
cumbed to its superior size and enlarged contents. When we men-
tion that it contains nearly 2,000 closely printed pages of relerence to
every conceivable subject that can affect the necessities of the London
resident or visitor, we have only indicated a small part of its value,
which, to be properly appreciated, must be examined with more
minuteness than we have space to detail. To one new feature we
we may, however, s'irect attention—viz., to that part which contains
the Postal Directory,' where a digest will be found, compiled from
the mist authentic sources, of the recces treaties with foreign Powers.
The list entitled ' Universal Rates of Postage' is a most successful
attempt to produce them in a form at once comprehensive and easy
of reference. Kelly's Directory is, indeed, not only the largest that
we have ever seen, bur, without question, the most perfect."
Naming Advertiser, December 8, 1813.—" the 45th annual pub-
lication of this most useful work ,s just appeared, and, having
made a careful examination of its contents, we feel it to he an act of
justice to the proprietor to say that the statement made in the preface
as to the great exertions which have been mule to render the 'ech.
tion for 1814 worthy of the largest commercial city in the world, is
fully borne out. Great additions have been made in the present
edition as compared with its immediate predecessor, albeit the latter
itself was on so vast a scale. The increase applies chiefly to the
Street,' Commercial,' 'Trades,'' Law,' and Court' Directories.
It would be difficult, indeed, to give an idea of the gigantic propor-
tions now a sutned by the Directory, and, as for the accuracy with
with which it is compiled, all we can say is, that, alter testing it, as
already described, we have not been able to discover one single mis-
take. Every information possible connected with a work of the
nature, will be found in it. It is accompanied by an admirable map
of London."
Weekly Dispatch, December 10, 1843.--s. The excellent manner
in which, for years past, this Directory has been conducted, has at
length entirely superseded its contemporary, Robson's London Di-
rectory but although the managers have no competitor to stimu.
late their exertions for superiority, they have not ceased to devote
their best exertions to justify the patronage they have received, and
in the number just published for the forthcoming year, we find that
the Street Directory' is largely increased, and that it has an en-
tirely new feature—viz., tables of the universal rates of postage,
compiled from official sources, comprehending an easy reference of
the postal arrangements contained in the treaties with foreign
Powers. This, and other information which the work eontains,
could only be obtained by those who possess the same advantages
es the gentlemen who manage the' Past-office Directory,' and so
long as they continue to devote the same care and attention to the
work that they have hitherto done, their Ithours will be appreciated
and rewarded by the public." „
Globe, December 1, I,l3.—"The present handsome volume, to
which a large Plan of London is prefixed, and which unites the
characters of a City and Court Directory, must be acknowledge,'
to be worthy, in the comprehensivene,s of its contents, of the
greatest centre of wealth and commerce in the world. It is stated
in the preface that 40,000 names appear in this volume, which
eiti er have not been in print at all, or not at the same addresses ;
and that the 'Street Directory,' which in the edition of 1643 was
comprised in 366, in the present volume extends to 466 pages The
Postal )irectory' furnishes new tables of rates of postage, in con-
formity with the treaties lately concluded with foreign Powers. On
the whole, the volume is the most complete collection of local infor-
mation that ever before was adapted to wants so enormous in local

creased in greater proportion Iran its bulk. '1 lie merit and use-
fulness of any work of this kind depend very greatly on the corn-
non its r
any other
in London can reasonably expect to find ; and, by extensive addi-
tions, and the most laborious attention to minute details, this Direc-
tory is now maths so perfect, ace :rate, and comprehensive, as to leave,
as we imagine, no room for the exercise of further ingenuity in the
way of improvement. Every department has keen so enlarged as to
render it certain that the required information will be found,
and the system of classification is so well digested and carried
into detail, that, large as the volume is, any single name, or any
item of intelligence, embodied in its multifarious contents,
may be found without an instant's loss of time. Another merit
is, that the information required is never given imperfect. If,
for instance, you look for the name of any banker in the United
Kingdom, you will not only find it with the proper address, but also
with the house added with which it has connections in London. So
in every other department ; you miss nothing you want, and find
much you' could not reasonably expect. Among the judicious im-
provements of this year are the addition of 20,000 new names ; a
valuable enlargement of the Conveyance Directory,' which now
comprehends every kind of transit made up to the latest date, and
the most recent regulations in the Post Office, with tables of the
new rates of foreign postage. In its complete shape, with an excel-
lent map, a dozen directories in one, with every dwelling in the
metropolis and suburbs marked, with the name of every house-
holder recorded, and the occupation of every merchant and trader
defined, it presents an example of what may be effected by the union
of enterprise, capital, skill, and industry when they have the dissec-
tion of a city like London for their object, and the certainty of is
universal patronage for their reward—the certainty, because in truth
the volume is a public boon, and as necessary to all persons engaged
in trade as the commonest implements of the counting-house or the
shop, as a day-book, for instance, or an inkstand."
Shipping and Mercantile Gazette, December 14, 1813.—" This
huge minuet has again made its appearance. The volume for 1844
is larger than the last. This is caused in part by the late increase of
buildings ie London, but in a greater degree by additions to its use-
fulness. The Commercial, Court, Street, and other Directories are
considerably enlarged, and so classified as to cause no loss of time in
reference. The Parliamentary Directory' embraces the latest
changes in the representation—namely, those of the City and Salis-
bury. The ' Postal Directory' furnishes new tables of rates of post.
age, in conformity with the recent treaties with foreign Powers.
Besides the Banking, Conveyance, and Official Directories, the.coun-
try inns throughout the provinces are given ; indeed, every kind of
information that it is possible to expect in such a work is supplied in
the Post-office London Directory.' A proof of the importance of
this monster book is that it annihilates all rivalry. Its presence, like
that of Polyphone, is a signal for the disappearance of allwho venture
upon the same ground; for we learn from a memorandum attached
to the volume that the Proprietors of Robson's London Directory'
have declared their inability to compete with the Post-office volume,
and have consequently ceased to publish it. Thus the metropolitan,
like the pastoral monster, has flung the fatal rock upon its most
formidable rival. We should not forget to name that tho volume
before us is prefaced by a good modern map of London."
Herapath's Journal, December 9, 1843—" Of the extraordinary
productionsto excite
of the present clay, probably this is the one most calcu-
latedexcite astonishment. If these ignorant of the mysteries
of typography are puzzled to think how it has been accomplished,
all accustomed to literary labour, and theiefore able to appreciate
the difficulties of the task, must be infinitely more so. The va
classifications have been well considered. Of all the merits of this—
it us
may be fairly termed—National Directory, not the least is the
arranex-
treme clearness and simplicity of its Y'
arrangement • larger than the
largest ordinary work of the kind, it can throughout
with the same facility as a dictionary. 'this has be consulted
judicious sub-division appropriate headings—goode effected by
indices—and
strict alphabetical arrangement. The book is divided -dices—and
subj:cts, each complete ni or itself, and yet all more lessinto connected
with each other. We will take the first:—An arrangement
all the inhabitants of every street, court, and
place within the metropolis, and for some miles
from Clapham to Ball's-pond; round,
from from Stratford to Not_
t
ting.hill. This list is, as, indeed, may be said of • 5;
many others in the volume, unique. It gives the inhabitants of
every place, nobility and gentry, merchants and shopkeepers,
all at one view. '1 his is a thing that, for obvious reasons, no other
-work has attempted A description of the localey is likewise fur-
nished, and as in each street those which intersect it are accurately
described, the entire, a well as being a copious Directory, partakes
f the character of a general map. We have heard belore of Mr.
M` Adam, the colossus of roads; but this may be truly called the
colossus of streets. Had such a thing been in existence alter the
fire of London, a gem ral and available registry of property would
have been at hand, and, should it happen that a copy survive the
,eetr• pens it so well des ribes, the future historian or statistician
might fi om its p .ges obtain an excellent idea of the wealth, extent,
and magnificence of the greatest commercial city the world has yet
s en, and of the pursuits of its inhabitants. We observe that in the
Conve)ance Directory several thousand new places have been intro-
'arced , with all the newest railway information. The cost of the
production of such a book must have been enormous, and to repay
the energetic proprietors the ale must be very great indeed. Of this
there can, however, be little doubt, as in any place of real business it
cannot i e dispensed with without continued inconvenience."
Mining Journal, December 9, 1841.—" This Diiectery for the
forthcoming year, evidences the exercise of indefatigable research
in the procuration of an immense mass of valuable inforo.ation,
and of great talent in its classification and arrangement, so as to be
of the utmost use, and readily available. It presents a complete
Post-ottice vade mecum, and abounds in particulars of such univer-
sal importance as to become an indispensable requisae for the office
of the banker, merchant, or tradesman. The accuracy and perfect
arrangement of this work are deserving of the highest praise, and
the sale must indeed be considerable to compensate for the expense
and labour entailed on its production."
Spectator, December 9, 184'3.—" This immense volume still con-
tinues adding to its facts and information, though the addition of
new features seems to have stopped at present from the exhaustion
of subjects. To what extent additional minutiae are added, may be
guessed by upwards of eOO pages more of large and closely-printed
matter being given in the present volume."
John Bull, December 23, 1843.—" Nothing less than a Monster
Review ' could do complete justice to this' Monster Volume,' which
is indeed a remarkable monument of labour, industry, and accuracy.
Among an almost indefinite number of other useful things, it com-
prises a complete Official Directory," Street Directory," Com-
mercial Directory,' Trades Directory,' `Lew Directory,' Court
Directory,' Postal Directory,' City Directory,' ' Conveyance
Directory,' Banking Directory,' &c. In short there is nothing con.
nected with this huge metropolis in the way of direction which will
not be found here. It is mentioned that 40,000 names appear in
this volume, which either have not been in print at all, or not at the
same addresses, while the Street Directory,' which last year was
comprised in 366 pages, now occupies 438 pages. In the Postal
Directory,' the latest regulations have been arranged in the part
headed' Universal Rates of Postage, in a form at once comprehen-
sive and easy of reference."
The Sentinel, December 30, 1843. We were surprised to see, by
an advertisement, that so old a favourite as Robson's Directory'
was to be discontinued; but after an examination of the Post-office
I)irectory for 1844, we should be equally astonished if any book of
the same class could be found successfully to compete with it, there
being upwards of 1,900 pages of imperial octavo, closely printed,
containing more than 100,000 names. Not only does its bulk give an
idea of the enormous increase of the metropolitan population, but the
many improvements in its arrangements are such as to impart the
most important facilities in the expeditious dispatch of business.
The discontinuance of the practice of making class distinctions in the
Street Lists' will be found a great convenience. The information
given on the subject of the Post-office arrangements has been greatly
simplified, while the Map of London, which accompanies the work,
and which has been prepared expressly for it, extends to a radius in-
cluding the immense suburbs of the metropolis, with its most recent
improvements."

the power: to pass his water ; consequently Mr. Perkins, surgeon,
of Exeter, was sent for to pass the catheter and draw it off. Mr.
Potter was otherwise extremely ill from rheumatic gout, so much
so, that Dr. Elliott, of Mount Radford, Exeter, was in attendance
with Mr. Perkins, and it was considered that he was in imminent
danger. All mans were had recourse to, ace rding to the present
mode of practice, to restore their patient, which was in sons^ mea
sure effected, as, alter many weeks, the patient left his bed; but as
for the bladder, it had lost entirely its c mtractile power, so much so,
that for thirteen weeks lie never could make water in the natural
way, and the catheter was obliged to he introduced four or five times
every day, and always dosing the night it was kept passed into the
bladder. Mr. Potter continued to suffer in this distressing manner
until the sth of August, about which period he was recorsmended
to me to see if Morison's Pills wou'd have any good eff,ct upon bins,
and my opinion being favourable as to the ultimate results of that
medicine upon him, he immediately began with three pills at
night and two in the morning, an 1 at the end of the third day,
astonishing to say, he was able to make water in the natural way.
He continued every day to progress favourably, and I think he has
taken the medicines in varied doses for about three months, under
my directions, with the happiest results, inasmuch that he as now
no occasion to pass the instrument, the bladder having quite regained
its natural power; and Mr. Potter's health is so regenerated in
every respect, that he has now become as active and healthy a person
as can be seen.

Case of Cure by Morison's Vegetable Universal Medicine, in Liver-
pool, after being given over as incurable by the doctors.
To Messrs. Morison and Co., London.
Gentlemen,— I consider it my duty to make my case known to you,
having for many years been a great sufferer, until relieved by your
invaluable medicines. In 182 J I was first attackedwith a sickness at
the stomach, which continued for some time ; I had frequent bilious
attacks and could get no relief, which obliged me frequently to give
up work altogether. About two years ago I was under the doctor's
hands three months, with a diseased liver and stomach ; my com-
plaints were alleviated fora short time, when I was seized with a low
nervous fever. This was the worst of all my complaints, and it is im-
possible to describe my sufferings. The doctor did not seem to under-
stand my complaints, or did not know how to relieve them ; he di-
rected me to try sea bathing. I was better at first, then came on loss
of appetite, and could get no rest night or day, so that I almost lost
my senses. I then went to a fresh doctor, who told me he could cure
me in a fortnight. At the first I found benefit as before, but itbafiled
his skill, and 1 was as bad as ever, and left him. then commenced
drinking herb tea, which I found lid me more good than the doctor.
I was next attacked with a very severe bowel complaint and sickness,
and I sent to the doctor again. I was confined to my bed a week, and
reduced to a skeleton. I got a little better, but the doctor refused to
give me any more medicine, as it was of no use ; he could do me no
good, fur had I continued there would have been no chance what-
ever, and he did not wish to injure me. Hearing of your medicines
curing a man after thedoctors hail given him up, I was resolved to
give them a trial. When I first commenced I was diseased from head
to foot. My appetite seas so ravenous I was never satisfied, and dropsy
seemed taking the lead of my other complaints. Mr Fisher, your
agent in Liverpool, kindly advised my commencing with small doses
of the pills, increasing as I could bear them. I never exceeded 12 or
14 at a time, and have now been taking them IS months. All my
complaints have left me, except that my stomach continues rather
weak, which is all I suffer from at present, and I think that, by fur-
ther perseverance, I shall arrive at perfect health. lam now better
than I have been for many years past. I have recommended the pills
to my neighbours, many of whom have found great benefit from
them. I beg you, gentlemen, to accept my heartfelt thanks, and hope
you will, notwithstanding the imperfections of the writing, publish
this for the benefit of others, and as an encouragement to persevere.
I am, Gentleman, year's, very respectfully,

Cure of Dropsy, &c., eacted by Morison's Vegetable Universal
Medicine.
No. 66, Bridport-pace, Hoxton, London, Jan. 28, 1843.
Gentlemen,—A sense of duty to my fellow-creatures, as well as
gratitude to yourselves for the benefit your invaluable medicine
has conferred an me, induces me to make this communication to
you, in the hope that it may be the means of removing the prejudico
which unfortunately exists against a medicine which places the
greatest earthly blessing—namely, that of health—within the reach
of every one who will accent of it. I have been afflicted with ill
health for years—l might almost say from childhood—to within a
short period of the present time. Disease under various forms has
gone fir to embitter a portion of my existence. The last form it
assumed was dropsy, with which I was attacked about five months
since, and which made such a rapid progress that at about the end of
one month 1 was brought to the last extremity, my body and legs
being swelled to a frightful size. I had the most fatal symptoms of
speedy dissolution—my hours on this earth appeared to be but few.
At this critical period, a friend,directed,by an ever-watchful Provi-
dence, who had often used his persuasive powers on previous occa-
sions with but too ill success, hearing of my condition, and rightfully
enough, considering that my confidence in the faculty must now be
shaken, as their treatment seemed rather to assist the disease than
otherwise, and knowing that however hopeless my case appeared, if
it were within the reach of mortal power, what alone could save me,
presented me some of Morison's I'ills, requesting me as a personal
favour to try thrall. I did so, and the result has been, with the
blessing of God, a restoration to health, to the surprise of all my
friends, who look on me as one raised fr im the dead. I began with
six at night, and have never exceeded eight. I found the first dose
attacked the complaint, and at the expiratism of a week, so rapid was
the effect produced by them, my legs and feet had come down to
their proper size. I was enabled to resume my situation three month;
after my using the pills, in a better state of health than ever I en-
joi ed. Hoping that my case, which, it mu.t be admitted, is no
trifling one, may be the means of opening men's eyes with respect to
the fallacious system of the doctors, which is one of inconsistencies
and contradictions, and of causing them to think seriously for them-
selves on a subject of so much importance—the acquisition of health,
on a safe and certain principve—as after my own case, I am persuaded
that, however diseased, or of however so long standing, relief, if nit
health, is a boon within the reach of all—with these imperfect re-
marks I conclude, and believe me to remain, Gentlemen, ever
grateful for the benefit I have received, HENRY THACKER.

London, September 1, 1843.
The BOARD of SUPERINTENDENCE of the " HALL
•,f COMMERCE" take leave to draw your attention to this
Institution.
It has been built and established at a very great cost, by a
-ingle individual, for the convenience of the Commercial Com-
munity of the City of London, with a degree of public spirit
worthy the metropolis of the world.
The subscription ►s now placed on so moderate a scale as to
to no object of consideration, in proportion to the conveniences
offered, which are set forth in the above Prospectus ; and the
Board are of opinion, that without interfering with any of the
existing establishments appropriated to specific branches of
'rade, these conveniences may be found available by a very large
body of persons in the City of London—by parties visiting
ondon occasionally on mercantile affairs—and by gentlemen
from the Continent and other foreign ports.

THE MIRROR of LITERATURE, AMUSE-
MENT, and INSTRUCTION, containing Tales,
Poetry, Historical Narratives, Biographical Memoirs, Maaners
and Customs, Topography, Science, and Fine Arts, for
THIS DAY, Jan. 13, price Twopence, is embellished with
.a
superior engraving of Christ's Hospital, by Mr. Palmer's new
process, an Heraldic Engraving and two Cuts, explanatory of
the Boccius Light. Among its Contents will be found an
interesting article, by Capt. Lucas, descriptive of " Algiers

Statue, and Nelson's Pillar—The Loudon Drapers' Associa-

The Supplementary Number, price Twopence, containing

or of a place in any collection' and worth twenty times the
price of the number in which it appeared, the Supplement

The Proprietors have the satisfaction to find, as is very
generally acknowledged, that during the past year no efforts
have been spared to give additional interest and importance
to a publication which has ranked as a favourite with
the higher as well as the middle classes for more than
twenty years. The promises made by popular Writers and
eminent Professors who had engaged to enrich its pages with
their communications have been made good, and no Ma-
gazine of the day has been able to lay before its readers
more varied or more valuable original matter. Its widely-
extending connexions enable the Proprietors to furnish the
earliest and most correct announcements of
to all discofverends ies in
Art, Science, and Nature, that are interesting disco vends of
Literature.
Some of the most striking historical tales which the season
has produced, tales not composed of maudlin sensibilities, but
valuable illustrations of the'annals and manners of former days;
translations of standard works of French and German authors
by the ablest hands, for " The Mirror" exclusively, have also
within the same period diversified its columns.
The Reviews which have appeared have been free and im-
partial, not merely authors' prefaces and booksellers' puffs,
which indolence and meanness have often been content to
adopt as such.
Engravings of the Heraldic honours of Noble Houses have
been introduced one in each week. In the accompanying
notices no party spirit has been allowed to enter, and some
memorable scenes have been recalled, which in ordinary Peer-
ages would be sought for in vain. The valuable assistance of

Lieut. Mackinnon's Report.
The last packet from America brought the following report from
Lieutenant John Mackinnon, 104th Foot. Hygeian general agent
for Cape Breton and other islands in the Gulf of St. Lawrence :
To Messrs. Morrison and Moat, British College of Health, London.
Dear Sirs,—On the 6th of October, 1842, I had the pleasure of
transmitting to the British College of Health a brief report on
Ilygean affairs i i this quarter of the globe, and which, I am
happy to discover, has been largely circulated, and some hundreds of
copies sent to this island to stare in the face both friends and foes.
Since the report alluded to, the Universal Medicines of the Col-
lege have nothing diminished in the estimation of old as well as new
patients, for not a cloud has arisen to obscure, even for a moment,
their shining lustre, and many cases of cure have been performed,
(by the blessing of God on the means) of truly a most astonishing
nature. A few only I deem it necessary to forward.-Ist. Archibald
APDonald, aged 47, farmer, pronounced incurable by several doc-
tors. lie had been informed by the wiseacres, that by the aid of
their sounding rods they had disco. ered that his heart had grown
too large for its casement, and that lie might prepare himself for an
eternal world. Ile applied to me as his Bernier resource before
leaving this world, and was greatly surprised at my failing into a
violent fit of laughter at his talc of woe. " Archy, my man," said
I, Do only what I bid you, and I will cut down that tremendous
heart of yours in a few weeks ; for those fellows you have been
consulting are only blind leaders of the blind." The pills and
powders were administered in grand style, twenty at a dose twice
a day ; this was in April. and the July following he paid for his
medicines by snowing the grass in my field', and then foun f that
his heart was freed from its shackles. He has remained in good
health ever since.
For the remainder of Licut. Mackinnon's resort,- see the S9th
number of the Hygeist, published on the Ist of December last.
The last Overland Mail from India brought Intelligence of the
chol ra raging in the interior, and of its successful treatment in
all cases where Morison's Medicines were had recourse to.
The following is an extract Crum a letter just received by Meters.
Morison and Moat, of the British College of Health, Hamilton-
place, New-road, London, from Robert L. Pereira, Esq., then ge-
neral agent lbr Madras, dated October 21, 1843 :
I regret to inform you that the cholera is making great ravages
in the interior, end in a part of the black town called Parcherry.
Li Madras. during the last nine or ten days, many have fallen
victims; those who have taken your invaluable medicines have
been cured, and others have been saved from an attack by a timely
application to same means.
Another extraordinary case of cure from Mr. Pereira, of Madras.
Copy :—To Mr. It. L. Pereira.
Si r,—l beg to inform you that one of my relations, a boy 12 years
of age, having been bitten one night, at about half-past eight o'clock,
by a venomous snake, called by the natives Cataverien, or Carpet
Snake, about twelve o'clock his whole body became swollen to an
enormous size, and he commenced vomiting blood and rice, accom-
panied with an oppression in the chest, and in the last stage. I
have, in the absence of other medicines, given him a dose of twelve
of Morison's No. 2 Pills from the last purchase I made from you, and
the boy, half an hour after he had taken the pills, threw up bile and
had a few motions, whereby he felt instant relief, which gave him
good rest till the next morning, and when he awoke he still
felt heavy symptoms, upon which a medical practitioner, a
relative of the patient, prepared a draught, and desired the
boy to take it; he peremptorily refused, and said he would take
no other medicine but the pills he had taken before, because he
benefited thereby ; accordingly, another dose of nine pills
was given him ; about half an hour after he vomited some !green
stuff and had three green motions, and entirely recovered. I beg
also to bring to your notice that, notwithstanding the most extra-
ordinary cure I !lase experienced with this invaluable medicine in
the bite of a venomous snake, as above stated, I have had the hap-
piness of curing various complaints of both a chronic and acute
nature, and more particularly of myself. I must say that were it 'rt
for these pills I .hould to this very day suffer with the :severe pain
in the pit of my stomach which used to come on me very fre-
quently for several years before I used them ; in fact, many in my
neighbourhood who knew me to have suffered with the pain, and
that I had cured myself of it with these pills, flock to me for aid
whenever they arc taken ill, and I sin obliged to give it to them,
grats in some instances. hoping that, as these pills are now be-
coming better known asnong the native population, and will be in
greater demand daily, you will always have a good stock on hand for
the benefit of mankind in this part of the universe,
I beg to subscribe myself, Sir,
Your very obedient servant,
SOOBA ROY A MOODELIAR.

tie will produce the desired effbct ; and no remedy can be so well cal.

DESTRUCTION OF THE CONTAGION OFTHE PLAGU E.—
A Committee of Russian medical authorities have been
making experiments in Egypt on the destruction of the
contagion of the plague by means of hot air. The
woollen articles of clothing were worn by persons deci-
dedly affected by the disease for 24 hours, exposed to a
heat of 144 deg. to 167 deg. Fahr. in a heated room, and
were then worn by persons in perfect health who had
held quarantine in disinfected clothing. These persons
(56 in number) wove the woollen clothing during a fort-
night, and not one of them became subject to the plague
for several weeks after the experiment.—Medical Ga-
ulle.
A CERTAIN EEMEDY FOR ILL-HEALTII, BY HOL-
LOWAY'S PILLS.—MrS. Long, residing in Merrow-street,
Walworth, had been for three years in a very declining
state of health, owing to that period, the turn of life.
Her constitution appeared to be almost broken up, and
was considered as fast approaching a consumptive state.
She is now restored to a very high state of health by
these invaluable pills. All females approaching to that
critical period would find them the only effectual remedy
that such a dangerous ago requires. This medicine
would be invaluable to all young persons approaching
the term of womanhood. Sold at Professor Holloway's
establishment, 244, Strand (where advice may be had
gratis) ; and by almost all respectable vendors of medi-
cine throughout the civilised world.

—We are enabled to state that her Majesty has been
graciously pleased to remit the sentence of death on all
the prisoners convicted of the murder of the Earl of
Derby's gf,mekeeper, except John Roberts, the party
who fired the fatal shot. Roberts is left for execution.
The others will, it is expected, be transported for life.
