THE EXPERIM E.NTAL SQUADRON.
The Cork Examiner of ye sterday says:—The following is
an extract from a person on t board one of the vessels of the
above squadron, written to • s friend in Cork, dated Aug. 25,
and brought in by the Rattler steamer :
.4We have been nut six eeks to-morrow ;we have not
touched at any port, nor es ,et i sighted any land since we left
Spithead; we fully expects al to go into Cove, but f am be-
ginning to doubt that we shall now. The Admiral made a
signal to-day that there wor tld be an opportunity to-morrow to
send letters by the steamer Ra ttler. I believe she is going to
Cove to see it there are any or ,Jers from the Admiralty—if not
we shall go in—so that if w a are to go in at all we will be in by
next week. I dare say you t 'have seen all about our departure
from Spithead. We have h sc 1 fine weather in general. The
Queen proved the best sail sr in a light breeze, but in a stiff
wind the Albion was best. She is the best bad-weather ship ,
in the fleet. The sailing 1 las been as follows :—Queen first,
Albion second (first in rt 'ug h weather), Canopus third. St.
Vincent fourth, Rodney t Itch, Trafalgar sixth, Vaa.4uard
seventh, and Superb last."

consequence of the prevailin g east winds, started for Tarbert,
in the River 'Shannon, It i ,s also rumoured that her 11,j--sty's
steamer Rattler, Commando r Smith, is to proceed to the •shan-
non, to render any assistanc a that may be found necessary.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—LADY B— AND HOLLO-
WAY'S PILLS.—Lady B—, the wife of a distinguished
Lord, was, a few weeks since, so alarmingly ill, occasioned by
a disorder in the liver and stomach, as to induce her physicians
to disclose to the Honourable Mr. L—, her Ladyship's son-
in-law, that they entertained but little hopes of her recovery.
In this state, and unbeknown to her medical attendants, she
was strongly advised to try Holloway's celebrated Pills, which
she took for only three weeks, when she found herself as well
'as ever she was in her life. The accuracy of this extraordinary
statement can be proved beyond all doubt. Sold at Professor
Holloway's Establishment, 244, Strand, London, and byall
medicine-sellers throughout the civilised world.
