HEASA NTS, PAR TRIDGES, and
POULTRY.—Landed Proprietors, Gentry, &c., of
the United Kingdom wishing to rear Game for 1868 and
to be successful, are respectfully asked to send six stamps
for Mr. CHAMBERLIN'S new BOOK, containing 300
certificates of the utility of his FOOD. J. 0. supplies the
Crowned Heads of England and France and the chief of
the .aristocracy. By the use of his "Spanish Meal" any
quantity of birds can be raised.
The hundreds of thousands of heads of Game reared on
my system during the last ten years proves its utility ; :he
loss from every cause has not averaged three to the hun-
dred. Gapes and Itoup (the two most fatal diseases which
attack game) the birds have been and always are free
from. This is attributable to their robust constitution
and excellent condition. Pheasants fed on my food 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, Loudon, and his Imperial
Majes!y's Pheasantry at Compiegne and St. Germains, aro
fed with my food.
Address, Mr. JAMES CHAMBERLIN, Post-office-
street, Norwich, England.

of one,or two graphic sketches.

Chief felt himself called upon to despatch us, however
reluctantly, to the fortress. We took our departure,
hoping for the best, but fearing the worst. This time no
letter was handed to us, but simply a verbal communication
of the same purport as the firmer note. It was growing
dusk as we neared Selassd for the second time, and we were
beginning to make the last ascent, when we encountered
a European, accompanied by several Abyssinians. This
proved to he Mr. Meyer, one of the German artisans, who
communicated to us the welcome intelligence that the King
had liberated Mr. Rassam, Dr. Blanc, Consul Cameron,
and the remaining Magdala prisoners, and that they were
now descending the hill ; news which was corroborated
by the accompanying natives. On receipt of these tidings
we turned the heads of our mules, and, in company with
Mr. Meyer, arrived in the camp as the bearers of good
news, not only to ourselves, but to every one of those
who so eagerly surrounded us. Shortly afterwards Mr.
Rassam and his party arrived, and it was with heartfelt
gratitude that we laid our heads on the pillow that night,
secure at last after so many dangers. In the course of the
following morning the remainder of the Europeans, accom-
panied by their families, arrived. The King also, as it
was Easter Sunday, sent a present of 1,000 cows and 500
sheep to the Commander-in-Chief, who, seeing that his
Majesty had avoided complying with, perhaps, the most
important terms of the communication addressed to him—
namely, his own submission—had no option left but to
decline them. From that moment the King must have
clearly seen that two courses only were open to him—
either to yield himself unconditionally to the British
General or to make a stand on his amba and fight it out to
the last. He chose the latter.

LONDON AND GENERAL WATER
PURIFYING COMPANY (Limited).
PATENT CISTERN FILTER, charged solely with an;mal
charcoal. The latest patented Filter in general use, and requir-
ing, when once fixed, no attention whatever. Patronised and
used by her Majesty the Queen at Osborne, by H.R.H. the Duke
of Cambridge, the elite of the Medical Profession, and at the
Fusilier Guards', Middlesex, St. George's, German, and London
Hospitals, and at the Regent's Park and Tower Barracks, and
numerous institutions, breweries, &c.
Professor Frankland, F.R.S., in his analysis of the waters for
December, 1865, in the report to the Registrar-General, states,
"With regard to the filtration of this water (New River) through
animal charcoal, it will be observed that, although the total daily
domestic supply of a house on Haverstock Hill has passed
through the same filter for seven months, the animal charcoal
still retains practically unimpaired its power of abstracting or-
ganic impurities."
•," The above Filter was supplied by this Company.
The Filters may be seen in operation, and full particulars ob-
tained on application to the Secretary, at the Offices,
157, STRAND, LONDON, W.C. (FOUR DOORS FROM

The following reflections are suggested to the
Univers by the present state of Algeria France
now knows thoroughly the situation of her Algerian
colcn3 ; she knows it in the past, in the present,
and perhaps in the future. All is fully explained
in the letters which have passed between the Go-
vernor-General and the Archbishop—the one repre-
senting material force, who has hitherto done every-
thing; the other representing moral force, who
hitherto has been unable to do anything. It is a
complete failure. We have had 38 years of san-
guinary combats, of immense public works, of sterile
peace. A million of men have been put to death ;
many thousand millions of money expended ; Algeria
is a tomb, or rather a gulf, and on the edge of that
gulf all that we have obtained are famine, dis-
couragement, and despair ! All the blood that has
been shed has not produced one ear of corn; and
in that vast charnel- house war is the only seed
which an intelligent eye can see shoot up. By the
avowal of the Governor-Ganeral himself France
cannot now count upon the fidslity of 20 Arabs.
Does this come to pa,s because the Arab eeetns to
be capable of gratitude, or is it because the Arab
has no cause to be grateful? Whatever be the
reason, such an avowal, coming from those who have
all the power in their hands, is pregnant with ter-
rible consequences, for it prod Liras at the same time
the resolution to make no change either in their
system, or in the character of the population to
which they have so fruitlessly applied it. What is
to be done with those Arabs who will not become
French citizens, and whom the Governor-General
will not have converted to Christianity ?" The
Univers goes on to recount the various attempts of
former bishops to introduce the civilisation of
Christianity among the native population, and the
invariable resistance of the military authorities, and
to that cause it attributes the present condition of
the colony. _ _

IjON DON AND GENERAL WATER
PURIFYING COMPANY (Limited).

PATENT CISTERN FILTER, charged solely with animal
charcoal. The latest patented Filter in general use, and requir-
ing, when once fixed, no attention whatever. Patronised and
used by her Majesty the Queen at Osborne, by H.R.H. the Duke
of Cambridge, the elite of the Medical Profession, and at the
Fusilier Gunrds', Middlesex, St. George's, German, and London
Hospitals, and at the Regent's Park and Towor Barracks, and
numerous institutions, breweries, &c.
Professor Frankland, F.R.S., in his analysis of the waters for
December, 1865, in the report to the Registrar-General, states,
" With regard to the filtration of this water (New River) through
animal charcoal, it will be observed that, although the total daily
domestic supply of a house on Haverstock Hill has passed
through the same filter for seven months, the animal charcoal
still retains practically unimpaired its power of abstracting or-
ganic impurities."
*** The above Filter was supplied by this Company.
The Filters may be seen in operation, and full particulars ob-
tained on application to the Secretary, at the Offices,
157, STRAND, LONDON, W.C. (FOUR DOORS FROM
SOMERSET HOUSE).

LAMBERT'S ASTHMATIC BALSAM.—AN
EFFECTUAL REMEDY, without confining the
bowels or affecting the head, truly efficacious and pleasant,
is admitted to be the best medicine for immediately re-
lieving coughs, colds, confirmed cases of asthma, and inci-
pient consumption. It frequently cures persons whom the
faculty pronounce incurable, and admirably allays the
ticking which provokes frequent coughing. In approach-
ing consumption its effects are truly beneficial. Persons
deprived of sleep, or even lying down for fear of suffoca-
tion, may depend on relief in a fow minutes after taking it.
Prepared only and sold by W. LAMBERT, Chemist, 8,
King William-street, Charing-cross, London, and by all
druggists, in bottles, 131-41., and three quantities in one,
2s. 9d. each. Be particular, and ask for Lambert's Asth-
matic Balsam. The name and address are engraved on the

IL Fleet-street, has introduced an entirely uew de-
scription of ARTIFICIAL TLL PII, fixed without
springs, wires, or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble
the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from the ori-
nals by the closest observer ; they will never change
colour or decay, and will be found superior to any teeth
ever before used. This method does not require the
extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and will
support and preserve teeth 'hat are loose, and is gua-
ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed
teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in masti-
cation.

PARIS, May 21.

The Moniteur de l'Arinee of to-day publishes an
article denying that General Failly, on taking com-
mand of the troops at Chalons, made use of lan-
guage expressing the near probability of war. It
shows that the camp of instruction has been formed
not in view of an approaching war, but because it
was a necessity on account of the conversion of

arms.

SOUTHAMPTON, May 20.

The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer
Ceylon, with the above mails, has arrived here. She
brings 204 passengers, £4,690 in specie, and raw
silk of the value of £4,500. The Ceylon experienced
fine weather during the voyage. On 17th inst. spoke
the transport Serapis, and on the 19th the steamer
Tanjore.

On the morning of the 15th the British barque
Lybia, of Liverpool, from Trieste and Venice,
laden with grain for London, struck on the Pearl
Rock, and immediately commenced filling. Tugs
were sent off to save as much of the cargo
as was possible before she went down• _ _

ANOTHER MANSION DESTROYED B 1 FlRE.—Late
en Monday night the noble residence of Mr. Maxwell, at
Munches, near Dalbeattio, was destroyed by fire, and
nearly all its valuable contents consumed• The fire ori-
ginated in the nursery, from, it is supposed, the lightning,
which flashed with great vividness at the time ; and from
the trees the flames communicated with the mansion,
which was completely gutted, and left a smouldering heap
of ruins. About eleven o'clock a special train, with a fire-
engine, left Dumfries, but any help which could be ren-
dered by that means was then small. Yesterday the ruins
were still smoking, and hundreds of people crowded from
miles around to witness the desolation of what only the
day before was one of the noblest mansions in the south
of Scotland. The lightning, which is supposed to have
caused the disaster, was exceedingly bright throughout
ate entire district, as well as in the north-West of Eng-
lanl—bianchuter Examiner.
