make that curse more bitter to his fellow-man ?•

(Cheers.) No. Instead of despairing, I have more of
confidence and more of faith than evc.r. I believe
that those old delusions, which like verminous an I
filthy rags, have disfigured the fair form of our coun-
try's greatness, are fast dropping away. I think I
behold the dawn of a better day. We stand, so far as
I can judge, upon the very threshold of a new career,
when I trust it may he said that this League
—this great confederacy of all those who love
justice and bate oppression—has spread broad-
cast over this land a seed from which shall
spring, ere long, a glorious harvest of true greatness
for one country, and of permanent happiness for man-
kind.—(lmmense cheering followed the conclusion of
his Speech.)

CAUTION.—The licensed victuallers in the neigh-
bourhood of Islington have for a considerable time been
victimised by the following means :—lt appears that a
tall f llow, accompanied by a female of almost equal sta-
ire, enter the house as if just from a long journey; a
glass of mixed liquor is ordered, and, in the course of
d •h.king, a request is made for a steak or chop, &c.
Wh river the request has been acceded to, the parties
have inra iably made off during the progress of cooking,
with glasses, spoons, and, in several cases, even with
spittoons, pipe-rests, and any other available article.
Tuesday, the landlord of the Kenilworth Castle, in the
North-road, was robbed of three tumblers and an eight-
day clock; it is suspected by the same individuals.
THE PANDORA.—The race of Brownies does not
tedong exclusively to Scotland. In Normandy, this
useful little community is or was (for utilitarianism has
hunted out the fairy folk from all their strongholds, and
farmer's lads and lasses read penny magazines, and never
fancy their labours lightened by any such sweet delu-
sions) known by the name of esprits servans. They
were dwarfs, but they worked far more unremittingly
than the stalwart children of earth. They delighted in
rural eccupations. They would share the labours of the
reapers at harvest time, help the maidens to gather
apples, and the lads to garden—of course always remain.
iug invisible to mortal eyes. They would bring back
the stray cattle to the fold, wad during the long winter
evening; they would come and sit amidst fishermen and
shepherds, and close the useful labours of the day by
spinning flax. When they depart, they fling a hall of flax
out of winnow, and the thread unrolls itself in an upward
direction, and serves as a railway to conduct them back
to the regions of the air.
PRIZE FIGHT FOR ONE HUNDRED POUNDS.—
On Tues 1 y the contest between the well known pu-
gilists, Harry Broome and Joe Rowe, came off near
Gravesend. This was the second appearance of
Broome, the first fight having been with Mason. Rowe
has figured in the ring on several occasions, and dis-
played great courage and science. The weight of the
men was limited to ten stone five pounds. and it was
arranged that steam-boats should be provided to convey
the combatants and their respective friends to the
appointed locality. In accordance with this agree-
ment, they left Hungerford-pirer with a large number
of the pugilistic school, and duly arriving at their
destination, a ring was formed, and the neces •
cessary preliminaries completed, the spectators amount-
ing to three thousand. The men stripped and shook
hands, and operations were commenced with much cau-
tion, both men evidently waiting the attack. The first
round occupied eleven minutes. The men then began with
spirit. They contended with much coyness till the ninth
round, when both men exerted all their energies, and
fought with great desperation, both receiving much pu-
nishment. They kept up the contest three hours and seven
minute,, when there being but little probability of the
battle terminating before dark, the friends of the
men interposed, and the fight was adjourned. In bet-
ting, 5 to 4 were laid on Broome to a large amount.
Simmonds and Hannan were the seconds for Broome,
an] Turner and Sambo did the needful for Rowe. Broome
drew tint blood, and Rowe gave the first knock-dowt
blow, up •n which there was much money speculated.
THE IlArn.—Of the numerous compounds con-
stantly announced for promoting the growth or reproduc-
tion of 'the hair, few survive, even in name, beyond a very
limited period ; whilst " Rowland's Macassar Oil," with a
reputation unparalleled, is still on the increase in public es-
timation. The singular virtues of this successful invention
for restoring, preserving, and beautifying the human hair.
are too well known and appreciated to need much comment.
The very facts of the high and distinguished patronage it
enjoys, its general use in all countries, together with nu-
merous testimonials constantly received in its favour, are au-
thorities which stain') its superior excellence and title over all
attempts of a similar nature. Being universally preferred,
its consequent great del-nand. excites the cupidity of un-
