THE SKIN.—The increased quickening powers of
the sun during Spring, by giving an additional stimulus to the
circulation of the fluids, is frequently the cause of throwing to
the surface of the body the impurities of the blood ; to this
fact may be attributed the numerous cutaneous visitations
which occur at this period of the year, and which medicine in-
ternally taken is frequently unable to banish. Tiie extraordi-
nary celebrity which lowland's Kalydor, as a purely vegetable
production, has long claimed to itself, as a thorough extirliater
of Impurities from the Skin, is during the period of Spring
most pleasingly evinced ; it never fails of thoroughly cleansing
the skin, and is remarkable for inducing a fairness in the com-
plexion previously unknown.
morning notices were posted at Guildhall
stating that the City authorities were ready to receive tenders
for wood-pavement, to be laid down in Cornhill, Gracechurch-
street, Newgate-street, and part of the Old Bailey. In the
latter place the octagon-block pavement laid down before the
Central Criminal Court is a complete failure, the carriage-
road being in a worse state than it was under the old plan.
