The epidemic of the feafon at prefent is a boWel
complaint, which fhould be attended to in time,
as in many cafes it has proved fatal. A doze of
the tititfture of rhubarb, taken at the commence.
ment of the attack, to be followed by liberal po-
tions of water gruel; will effeaually relieve and
reftore the patient. Medicines compofed of fpices,
and all torts of ardent fpirits, fhould be carefully
avoided, nor f!iould laudanum be ufed, except in
extreme cafes, ar with the advice of the phyfician.

tive in that pan of the country. The premium is
4d. a-piece, and the petfon who claims is obliged
to produce their heads to entitle him to payment.
The claimant in this cafe was a brewing one and an
olijbot, and on exhibiting the fkulls of 279 (laugh.
tered Nov, it was oppofed againft birth that he
had not killed that fPecles of theln which *ere Mott

Monday night, between eight and nine o'clock,
an accident occafioned one of the molt melancholy
and (hocking cataarophes that we have for a long
time heard of :—The upper floor of an old houfe on
Snow-hill, Birmingham, occupied by a poor man
of the name of Pardoe, fuddenly fell, and drove
all the floors below into the cellar, burying in itsl
ruins the wife, five children, and a youth about)
16 years of age. People were immediately em-1
ployed in making an entrance into the cellar from
the iireet, by taking up the pavement, and in
about an hour and an half got out the woman and
youngea child, both ierydangeroufly bruifed; the
young man was alto taken out alive; but the four
other children, one boy and th-ee girls, were all
cruthed to death, and their bodies exhibited the
molt mutilated and Mangled fpedacles imagin-
able.—When the accident was known, every affift-
ance was immediately given; the Volunteers and
Conflables kept good order and the areet clear,
and the bell furgical diflance was at hand to hell
idle Caterers as Caw as they were liberated.
