BEE-HIVE ESTABLISHMENT,
17, (LATE 10,) PARADISE-STREET.

OKELL has carefully avoided the introduction of
VV • any SHIPWRECKED GOODS into his Retail
Stock, knowing well that the result of such Articles, as re-
gards durability, is very unsatisfactory* those who wish to
be economical in their domcstic aff*s, in most cases the
Article proving of very light and inferior fabric, and scarely
worth the trouble and expense of making up, although the
price charged for such Goods is not less than new, warrant-
able, and perfect Goods can be had for at any respectable
house who have the means of conducting business on the
best principle. This cannot, for a moment, be doubted, when
it has been clearly ascertained, that a vast proportion of the
Goods sold at the late Sales of Shipwrecked Property have
realized more than the original Shippers' Invoice Prices, not-
withstanding their being so materially injured. W. 0., there-
fore, urgently solicits comparison with his present Stock,
which is in the most perfect condition, and consisting of
THREE THOUSAND CAMBRIC AND MUSLIN

DRESSES,
Just opened out for Sale, and bought for Cash, from the

Stock of they
SPRING VALE COMPANY,

who are suspending operations, consequently they can be
offered at ruinous low prices and are warrated fast colours.
500 PIECES OF UNDRESSED IRISH LINENS,

Remarkably beautiful in Fabric,
and can be confidently recommended, being from the Stock
of JAMES HUNTER, of Coleraine, which is a sufficient
guarantee for their durability, particularly to those who have
once given this Cloth a trial.
IN BLACK AND COLOURED SILKS, SATTINETS,
SHAWLS, DE LAINES, &c.,
the Stock will be found more complete than usual, particu-
larly in Black Ducape SILKS, from 2s. to 2s. 3d. per yard.
IN •SHEETINGS, BLANKETS, COUNTERPANES,
CALICOES, HOSIERY, HABERDASHERY, &c.
the Stock is in a condition to maintain its usual character for
extent, variety, and cheapnesss.
Wholesale Buyers supplied on the smallest scale of Profit.
The same system is strictly adhered to which has charac-
terized this Established since its commencement, viz., all
Goods are bought and sold for Cash, and one Fixed Price,
from which no deviation is made.

LONGlNG.—Roderic a Castro relates the case of a lady
who could eat twenty pounds of pepper, and another who
lived upon ice. Tulpius mentions a woman, who, during
her pregnancy, longed for salt herrings, and ate fourteen
hundred of them, at the rate of five herrings per diem.—
Longius affirms that a lady in Cologne, who was in that
" state that ladies wish to he who love their lords," took
such a fancy that slae actually assassinated him ; and, after
indulging in as much fresh meat as the weather permitted
salted the remainder for further use. This cannibal incli-
nation seems not to be uncommon. The said Roderic a Cas-
tro knew a woman, in the same thriving condition, who felt
an inexpressible desire for a bit of the shoulder of a neigh-
bouring baker ; and her husband was persecuted, by her con-
stant prayers and lamentations, to prevail on the worthy
man to allow her one bite for charity's sake ; but the first
bite was so heartily inflicted, that the crusty baker would
not submit to a second taste. In the " Philosophical Trans-
actions" there is a case related of a woman, whose fancies
were not quite so wild, and who used to gratify her aerial
appetites by putting the muzzle of a bellows down her throat,
and blowing away- until she was tired.—Curiosities of Medi-
cal Science.
