TILE MYSTERIES OF LONDON.
Publishing in Weekly Penny Numbers, and Monthly Sixpenny Parts,
beautifully Illustrated with Wood-cuts,
THE MYSTERIES OF LONDON,
By G. W. M. REYNOLDS,
Author of "Pickwick Abroad " " Robert Macaire," " The Modern
Literature of France," " Master Timothy's Book-case," 8:c.
Since the days of 130e3 " Pickwick " no original work has created
so powerful a sensation in the reading world as " The Mysteries of
London." It was at first contemplated to publish it in monthly
shilling Parts ; but, upon mature consideration, the proprietor and
author resolved to issue it in a form which should render it accessible
to all classes. The prejudice against cheap lit:rature having com-
pletely died away, this determination was acted upon ; and a suce,::,
which far exceeded the most sanguine expectations previously formed
has crowned the work. The weekly and monthly sales, taken to-
gether, now amount to upwards of 30,000 copies. The thrilling in-
terest of the tale ; the vivid descriptions of London society, both high
and low; the graphic delineati on of strange or remarkable localities
in the great metropoll4 ; the exposures of all kinds of roguery to which
the unsuspicious ones may become a prey : and the fearlessness with
which the cause of the industrious millions is espoused, have given to
" The Mysteries of London " a character which has become the ele-
ment of the most lasting popularity.
London : G. Vickers ; and all Booksellers and Newsmen in town

preserv-
ing the complexion, and for rendering the skin white, smooth, and
sort. The great value of this cosmetic is, that the ingredients being
solely herbaceous, the most delicate complexion can apply it with-
oat injury, while rough, red and moist skins speedily experience
beneficial results. It will be found besides to prevent erruptions on
the ,kin during cold and chilly weather, Another important feature
Is that of repressing, without detriment to the sanatory condi-
tion of the user, the truly unpleasant sensation accompanying
too copious perspiration. For infants this powder is invaluable, on
asenunt of its harmless anti soothing qualities. Gentlemen who
suffer from the effects of shaving will find a ready alleviate in this
cosmetic.

DREADFUL CATASTROPHE AT

YARMOUTH.
(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)

NORWICH, FRIDAY EVENING, EIGHT O'CLOCK —The
most awful excitement pervades this city. A most
dreadful accident hai occurred at Yarmouth. Mr.
Nelson, the clown, belonging to Mr. Cook's Circus, now
at Yarmouth, announced the performance of being
drawn by four geese in the North River. The
suspension-bridge crosses this river, and about 518
people were on the bridge, when, horrible to relate, be.
tureen five and six o'clock the bridge fell in. It is re-
ported that from 100 to 150 persons perished. The
utmost consternation exisis here; special trains have
started; the telegraph is beset by hundreds anxious to
obtain news of relatives and friends. The report is that
already fifty-three kersons have been picked out dead.
It is thought many more are still in the river.
The telegraph has worked admirably.

calculated to carry eighty tons. It has been more used
lately since the railway opened.

CAUTION TO CONSUMERS.—DRY GAS METERS.
DEFRIES'S DRY METERS have successfully
stood the tests six years' trial. Among the 10,000 in use,
they have been adopted by the official authorities of the Houses of
Parliament, Woolwich Dock-yard, Somerset-house, Foreign-office,
Thames Tunnel, United Service, Reform, Conservative, and other
Club-houses, the Queen's Theatre, Chinese Exhibition, and many
other large establishments. Upwards of 20,000,000 cubic feet of
gas have passed through some of these meters without regula-
tion or repair, and which are still working to the entire satisfaction
of the gas company and consumers.

All gas consumers who study economy and a good light are invited
to avail themselves of the advantages and comfort to be derived from
the use of Defries's Dry Meter, but, to prevent the substitution of im-
perfect imitations, it is necessary at all times to order Deities's Dry
Meter, and to observe his name on the brass badge in front of all his
meters.

Testimonials from the most eminent and scientific men and large
consumers can be had on application (or will be forwarded by post),
free of expense, at the Manufactory, 67, St. Martin's-lane, London.

SOUTHWARK.

Two men, named Arnold and Mackman, were charged before
Mr. Traill, with stealing a great coat from the chaise of Mr. R.
Rawlings, of Fenning's Wharf.
A policeman stated that, on the preceding night, about nine
o'clock, being dressed in plain clothes, he saw a gentleman alight
from his chaise, at the coiner of St. Thomas.street in the Borough.
Immediately afterwards he observed the two prisoners, whom he
knew to be thieves,: walk towards the chaise, and, while
one of them watched, the other took the coat out
of the chaise, and both ran away. They were pursued
by a young man, in the course of which Arnold was seen to put
the coat on during Isis flight, but the young man was afraid to take
him into custody owing to the number of thieves about at the time.
A policeman, however, being made acquainted with the route
taken by the prisoners, succeeded in apprehending them, but they
contrived to get rid of the coat.
Mr. TRAILL said that he ,hould commit the prisoners, but would
remand them in order that the coat might be found.

the respectable drapers In the kingdom.
