INTERESTING TO LADIES.

To Messrs. Rowland and Son, 20, Hatton-garden, London.
Percpplace, Landport, Portsmouth, April 4, 1844.
Gentlemen,—l think it but an act of justice to inform
you of the benefit I have derived from the use of your
admirable Macassar Oil. About six months ago I found
ray hair getting daily more weak and thin, and much
discoloured, from a practice I had adopted of wetting it
continually ; fearing that I should lose it entirely, and
hearing of the efficacy of your Macassar Oil, I have for
some time past constantly used it, and the result is, that
my hale is now perfectly restored and much improved
in appearance and colour, having become thick, dark, and
glossy ; it also curls freely without the use of paper,
which it never did before. To all my friends I have
warmly recommended your Macassar Oil as an excellent
nliberty to show this letter, or
print, I beg you will not
'restorative and preservative for the hair. As I have an
publishobjection
tt to; bsuet you see my m
in
area a et
make any other use you please of it, and refer applicants
to me, if necessary, in proof of the efficacy of your ,Ma-
cassar Oil.—Your obedient servant,

Rowland's Macassar Oil preserves and reproduces the
Hair ; prevents it from falling off or turning Grey ;
Changes Grey Hair to its Original Colour ; frees it
from Scurf and Dandriff, and makes it beautifully soft
and curly.
Ask for "Rowland's Macassar Oil."
All others are fraudulent counterfeits.

MURDER AND SUICIDE AT BELPER.—The inquest
on the bodies of Yeomans and his wife was concluded on Thurs-
day, when, after the examination of several witnesses, the
Coroner said that probably sufficient evidence had been
adduced, and the jurythen declared that the evidence of that
day corroborated their opinion of the day before, and re-
'turned a verdict " That 'William Yeomans killed his wife
while labouring under a fit of temporary insanity, and after-
wards, daring the continuance of the same fit of insanity,
destroyed himself by cutting his throat." The Coroner, on
receiving the verdict, said that his opinion remained un-
changed. that the verdict was the jury's, and not his, and
that he thought nothing like satisfactory proof of insanity
had beau given. Thus terminated this painful incittii7.
