than a vendor of i he article ; and as vendors of this medicine we can
cooscient.ously recommend it to our friends, for there is scarcely a
day passes but we hear some extraordinary accounts •f it ; indeed,
we have known parties who have tried other advertised medicines
without the least success, and yet on resorting to this preparation
the now justly celebrated' Halse's Scorbutic Drops,' the disease has
yelled as if by magic. We again aay, " Try Italic's Scorbutic

MRS. CANDLER'S MURDER.—For several days, or
perhaps a fortnight, great exertions have been made to
find a little girl or the name of Mellish, who was said
to have told a woman in Yarmouth that she was going
past Mrs. Candler's house at the time of the murder,
and that hearing a voice inside, she went and peeped
through the keyhole of the door, where she could
clearly see what was done inside, and that she
saw Royal and Mapes there. The keyhole has
been carefully tried by the magistrates, and it was
found, that from the keyhole might clearly be seen what
was done inside in the direction of the murdered wo-
man ; but Mellish, who was only eleven or twelve
years of agv, could nowhere be found. Her
father, it seems, is an unbrella mender, and travels
the country for this Purpose, commonly bivouacking
with the cadgers. The girl when in Norwich, called
at the station-house, and, telling a tale of great distress,
obtained some temporary relief, and though every
lodging-house in the city, and many in the county,
have since been visited, and rewards offered to
produce her, she could not be found till Friday
last, when she was seen in Norwich Market-place
on the walk. She was at once taken to the station
house, and has evidently had much experience in
the slang of the begging fraternity. Without being
asked any questions as to the particular business that she
was wanted for, she was taken off to Yarmouth by Capt.
Love, the superintendent of the Yarmouth police, who
has for the last fortnight come to Norwich w-arly every
day, and sometimes twice a day, hoping that she might
be found. We know nothing of the result of her com-
munication.—Norfolk

BOULOGNE, JAN. 29.—0 n Wednesday morning a
report was circulated in Boulogne tnan an East India-
man, homeward bound, had been wrecked at Etaples, a
small fishing town between Boulogne, and Montreuil,
which had a melancholy interest attached to it not long
since by the wrecks of those ill-fated vessels the Conque-
ror and the Reliance. On inquiries being instituted, the
report was found to be too true, and it was said that
owing to the high sea, and the inaccessible nature of the
coast, the whole of the crew had met a watery grave.
Immediately on the report being authenticated, Mr.
Hamilton, her Majesty's Consul, and Commander Ha-
milton, his son, proceeded to the spot to afford all the
assistance in their power—though it is feared that, on
account of the violence of the storm, and the total
wreck which the vessel presents, all their efforts will
prove unavailing, and but little of the property be saved.
The name of the vessel is unknown, as her stern was
dashed to pieces by the fury of the waves. Her loss is
attributed to her having missed stays. She was being
driven on a lee shore, and when she attempted to tack,
her rudder proved totally useless ; in a short time she
struck on a ridge of rocks, and although the inhabitants
of Etaples used the utmost exertions to save the crew,
no boat could reach them, and they perished miserably,
within hearing from the coast, and after having passed
thousands of miles to arrive at their country which they
were destined never more to see. It is the universal
belief of sailors that if she had been able to get her head
round she would have weathered out the storm in safety.
