Wednesday morning, as William Men and John

parish of Gwennap, the charge suddenly exploded,
and killed them on the spot.
• A very curious relic of antiquity was lately found,
covered about tout feet deep in a moss, in the neigh-
bourhood of Castle Douglas, Scotland, which, till
about twenty years ago, formed part of the bottom
of a lake. It is formed out of a thin plate of brass,
and in shape resembles a mask for the human face,
being about ten inches long and four inches deep.
There are two crooked horns, which project from be-
tween the circular openings, apparently intended for
the eyes, and which are each about twelve inches
long. The external surface is fantastically orna-
mented, and has a strange and grotesque appearance.
Some antiquarians, who have seen it, suppose it to
have formed the face of one of the rude divinities
which our forefathers worshipped ; while 'others,
whose fancy is less enthusiastic, are disposed to think
that it may have constituted a most humble orna-
ment on the prow of a pleasure-boat. In the same
place eight rings, about three inches in diameter,
have been found, composed of similar materials, and
joined in pairs by vincula, about two inches long, ac-
companied by five small cups or hollow hemispheres,
also of brass, and an ink-bottle of stoneware.

Saturday se'nnight in the eveninbetwixt five
and six o'clock, as Mr. Alexander M'Dougal, cattle-

knocked him down, and then carried him over a wall,
where, being in a state of insensibility, they robbed
him of £205. On observing that he was recovering
his recollection, they attempted to strangle him, and
left him severely bruised. The villains got off with-
out discovery.

A few evenings ago, as one John Rigg, a licensed
local preacher, was returning from Butter mere, where
he had been attending some religious duties, he was
attacked-near that place by four ruffians, who used
him in a most barbarous and savage manner, so as
to endanger his life; but-he is in a fair way of reco-
very from the many wounds he received.

Wednesday morning, as the watchman was going
his round, he was called to the house of Mrs. Priest,
baker, in Fishergate, Doncaster, who stated, that her
bed-room had been entered by two men iii. smock
frocks, and that whilst one of them stood over her
with a knife, the other obtained her keys, and took
from a drawer upwards of £lOO in notes, with which
they had got clear off.
At the Petty Sessions of Winchester Mr. W. Kaye,

ADVICE.
WHEN Men of Education and professional skill
use persevering endeavours to discover the most sale and
certain method of treating a few prevailing Diseases, the success-
' ful result of their experience is the best proof of superiority.
Messrs. GOSS and Co. Surgeons, have been Induced to make
the cure of the following the object of their particular study, via
a certain Disorder, frequently contracted in a moment of intori-
eaden,' and its concomitants, Strictures and
an improved plan, are speedily and effectually cured ; as also de-
bility, whether arising from Bacchanalian indulgences, long resi-
I dent* it warm climates, or a secret solitary vice, too often un-
happily pursued by the youth of both sexes, in the one causing
sterility or barrenness, and in she other a numerous train of me-
! vous diseases, which, if not timely remedied, terminate in impo JJ
-
tence and consumption. In that distressing state of debility or
deficiency, whether the consequence of such baneful habits, or
arising from any other cause, by which the powers of the crinsti-
cotton become enfeebled, as regularly educated Surgeons of Lana
don, they offer a firm, safe, and speedy restoratiou te sound and
vigorous health.
The result of a long and extensive practice has enabled them,
by a superior method, to remove venereal complaints, however
Inveterate or complicated, without subjecting the • patient to the
least restraint in diet or exercise; and in recent Cases where an
early application is made on discovery of the infection, they Ire.
quently perform a cure in the short space of two days. The un-
precedented success of their mode of treatment (which has never
been known to fail in one single instance in a practice of 15 years,
during which period many thousand persons of both sexes have
been cured, even atter severe and injurious methods had bete
pursued by other Practitioners without effect), induces them to
' thus puhlicly offer their advice.
Moos. Goss and Co. exclusively professing the cure of these .
particular complaints, in order Mat they may not be, 'by a
mistaken few, marked with the obloquy so justly attached to
the ignorant empiric, thitik it but justice (so themselves to state
that they have been properly educated and initiated into every,
branch of the profession (certificates of which, from clifere9:
Hospitals, and testimonials tiJrn :Le most eminent Physicians,
they have to convince any iegnirer) that the success resulting
from their endeavours first ioduLed tbeni•to /nit the rrictiee.of
! the general Practitioner, ar,,i t!,in presume that their pt.' tersions
constitute a 'air ground for the unprecedented contid.n,ee with
' which they have, by the Public, been so Lberally

SOCIAI. HAPPINESS.
MARRIAGE should be the foundation of Sochi
Happinees, which is often disturbed through the panel
that form the union not taking those precautions which would*
cure them the enjoyment of that great domestic blessing. Peoph
*of every rank pay adoration to the shrine of wedlock ; bat what
the constitution has been tainted by disease, or debilitated bye
certain habit contracted at an early age, a renova'ion of stabillet
precious to entering that state is indispensibly requisite is revise
the slumbering sparks of lice, and to reanimate the system. Fie
no disorders have contributed more essentially to destroy line:
nral happiness than those which are the consequence of ungustal
pleasure. It alas this consideration which induced Mesta`
CURRIE and Co. for these last twenty years, to direct their Sta.
dies and pi actice exclusively to the treatment and cure of the Vs.
nereal Disease, and the disorders arising therefrom, as a:s3 to that .
derangement of the system, produced by the destructive habit et
the inconsiderate school-buy, which brings on those distressing
i Debilities and Deficiencies that prevent or embitter the Mitre
mouial state. The successful result of their plan, tv4isilit
additional ardour to oppose the ranges of these
which are the most important in the catalogue of hum
mities. It believes every person who has indulged la this
teary vice to seek relief by consulting professional men of
neoce and honour, to which Messrs. Currie and Co.
sanction of scholastic authority, as well as the tesumeel
contradicted facts. In professing the cure of these
they hold out no inducement to vice; but, sensible es
must be of the existence of such calamities, they offer
tanro as regularly-tducated Members of the RoyelCoitspieit
Surgeons of London and fldlubazgh.
Messrs. Currie and Co. have selected the following lefties
the many they are daily receiving, from Gentlemen

It was sent to them unsolicited, front the sou of a Noble
who bad laboured under this distressing and painlid malady it
ten years; he had been under the care of several Surgeons t

pursued by Messrs. Currie and Co. he received a radical an,
