TOOTH ACHE.

Rheumatism gnaws, or cholic squeezes,
Our neighbour's sympathy may ease us,
Wi' pitying moan ;
But thee—thou hell o' a' diseases
Ay mocks our groan.—BunNs.
TOOTH ACHE CURED IN A MINUTE
EGGLESTON'S VEGETABLE PASTE, a permanent
and instant cure for the most agonising tooth-ache. This
truly valuable and innocent nerve-killer, composed entirely
of vegetables, without the admixture of anything pernicious
to the teeth, is the only remedy ever discovered to effect that
great desideratum, since the creation, viz., the cure of tooth-
ache, arising from whatever cause, without that destructive
and dangerous operation, extraction.
" We, the undersigned, passengers on board the packet-
ship Fairfield, from Liverpool to New York, being very much
troubled with tooth-ache, found immediate relief from the
use of Eg,gleston's Vegetable Paste, and can with confidence
recommend it.

" Sir,—l have used your Vegetable Paste with the greatest
success amongst several hundred passengers, and in scarcely
a single instance has it failed of an instantaneous cure ; I
can, therefore, strongly recommend it to any person suffering
from tooth-ache.—Yours truly,
"B. DAW B ARN ,
" First officer of the Packet-ship Fairfield.
" To Mr. Eggleston."
" We can, from experience, highly recommend Mr. Eg-
gleston's Vegetable Paste, as a cure for the toothache."—

A FACT.—The excess of females over males in the whole
population of Great Britain is 509,889.

The Rev. R. W. Sibthorp is, we understand, at the Roman
Catholic College, Oscott, and will be there re ordained. His
fellowship at Magdalen College has not yet, we believe, been
declared void ; and the proceedings in the matter are looked
to with much interest, as curious and knotty questions will
arise.

It appears not to be generally known that under the act 1
and 2 Victoria, insolvent debtors omitting property fraudu-
lently from their schedule, or retaining wearing apparel above
the value of £2O, are guilty of a misdemeanour, and subject
themselves to three years' imprisonment and hard labour.
The penalty not only attaches to the insolvent, but likewise
to all persons aiding and abetting.
At a dinner in Madrid, recently given by the staff of the
garrison to the staff of the National Guards, the following
among other violent toasts, were drunk with great warmth,
if the Cerreo Nacional, itself a violent paper, may be be-
lieved,—" To the happy day when we shall drink the blood
of tyrants like the wine of this glass." "If the pope ex-
communicates the Duke of Victory, may Spain shake off
as soon as possible the yoke of the Pope." " To the speedy
coming of pure Democracy." " May the Supreme Being
speedily glorify the King of the Barricades."

THE CAunLE.—The form is this—all the foreign ministers
and their ladies and visitors of a certain rank and station,
who call personally at the palace to make their enquiries, are
conducted into the interior, and received by the lady in
waiting to whom, if not personally known, they announce
themselves. They are then conducted 'into one of the state
rooms, when the lord in waiting and other officers of the
household are assembled, and candle is handed round. It is
served in large cups or vases of China, with handles at the
sides, a cover and a stand ; and by the side of each cup is
placed a piece of cake. After this is disposed of, the royal
infant is brought in by his nurse and goes the round of the
circle; the visiters then take their departure.—Cheltenham
Looker-on.

DREADFUL SHIPWRECK.—The barque Amanda, which
sailed from Limerick with emigrants bound for Canada, in
the early part of September last, was lost on the 26th of that
month in the gulf of the river St. Lawrence, when 42 per-
sons met with a waters• grave. It appears that the ship met
with a dense fog, which lasted from the 24th to the 26th,
when the ship struck at five o'clock in the morning. The
long-boat was lowered by the crew, into which 12 sailors and
29 passengers hurried alongside and swamped her, and every
one perished. One man, who was supposed to be worth
some money, went down the companion while the vessel was
sinking to look after it, and was never seen afterwards. The
captain and four of the crew, and five passengers, who had
the good fortune to cling to the wreck, were saved. The
bodies of the sufferers were all washed ashore next morning,
and interred in a burial ground two miles from where the ac-
cident occurred.

POINT ABERGLASLYN.—The approach of Point Aberglas-
lyn supplys all the materials of a most marvellous picture,
rising in some points of view, to the sublime and terrible.
The road where the view first bursts upon the eye in all its
varied and extraordinary features, by its bleak, barren as-
pect, overhung by huge precipices and broken rocks stretch-
ing into the distance, well prepares the mind for those im-
pressions which, on whatever side approached, by day or by
moonlight, as Bingley so enthusiastically describes it, never
fails to call forth the admiration of the coldest traveller. All
the milder features of landscape are here lost amidst these
rocky fabrics ; instead of the softer interchange of hill, and
lake, and glen, the grandeur of the whole scene at once
arrests and employs the imagination. The way through
the pass, which, so late as Mr. Pennant's visit. was
a mere horsepath, was a few years ago sufficiently widened
for a double line of carriages, and has more recently been
much improved. It runs along the base of the moon-
tam, which has been blasted to a considerable extent, and is
formed upon the solid granite, bounded on the river side by
a stone wall. The bridge is built frarn rock to rook, arid
produces an extraordinaiy effect in the scene of which the
engraving on the opposite page conveys a faithful representa-
tion. There was formerly a saloon leap at this place, which
has been destroyed ; but the river still abounds with that fish
and tribes of speckled trout, which afford excellent sport to
the experienced angler.—Front Roscoe's North Wales, new
edition.

A FASHIONAriLIK HUSBAND.—The following scene, ac-
cording to the Moniteur Parisien, occurred a few days since
at a linen warehouse on the Boulevards. Mademoiselle A.,
formerly an actress at the Rouen Theatre, but now keeping
her carriage, and spending 20,000 f. a year, had been making
some purchases, and was leaving the shop, when she met the
wife of the person to whose liberality she is indebted for the
luxurious style in which she lives. The wife, indignant at
the sight of the enemy of her domestic peace, and giving way
to her passion, fell upon the ex-actress, and a sort of fight
ensued, during which the husband came up, and giving his
hand to his mistress, handed her into her carriage, leaving
the outraged wife to return home to her four children and
weep !

LLANGOLLEN.—intelligence of a serious affray with
poachers in Wynnstay-park has been just received, through
the medium of Mr. John Kyffin, superintendent of police.
From what has transpired it appears that information had
been forwarded to Mr. Holt, Sir Watkin's head gamekeeper.
that a gang of six or seven poachers were carousing at a
public-house at Ruabon on Tuesday evening, and purposed
visiting Sir Watkin's preserves that night. Accordingly he
and five or six men were ou the watch. In the course of the
night, or early on Wednesday morning, they met at a gate of
the preserves, whereupon one of the poachers shot at the
foremost keeper, and wounded him in the foot and leg, which
felled him to the ground. On recovering
he levelled his
piece at the depredator, and severely wounded himin the
abdomen. His life is despaired of. One of the poachers,
besides the one wounded, has been captured, and the police
are out in all directions in pursuit of the other fugitives.--

THE CASE Or BERNARD CAVANAGH. READING,
SATURDAY NIGHT.—This evening completed the tenth day
of Cavanagh's imprisonment. On Thursday and Friday his
pulse declined, and this morning a small quantity of the
gaol allowance of gruel was missed from the vessel in which
it had been placed, while the whole of the remaining quantity
was much thiner than when it was sent in. His frame had
become evidently weaker; his pulse very feeble; and this
evening Mr. Bulley, the surgeon, was called in. He ordered
some gruel, with a glass of port wine in it, which Cavanah
gladly swallowed, as the means of restoring him to health.
He was clearly in a state of great exhaustion, scarcely able

HISTORY OF HATS.--The use of bats, that is, of caps
with brims to them, is of very ancient date. Among the
Greeks, the Dorian tribes, probably as early as the age of
Homer, were characterised by the broad-brimmed hats which
they wore when on a journey. The same custom prevailed
among the Athenians, as is evident from some of the eques-
trian figures in the Elgin Marbles. The Romans appear, in
general, to have used no covering for the head except a corner
of the toga or upper garment; but at sacrifices and festivals
they wore a bonnet or cap; and this being permitted only to
freemen, part of the ceremony of manumitting a slave con-
sisted in putting one of those caps on his head. But on
journey the Romans were accustomed to wear a bat called
petasus, with a margin wide enough to shade their faces
from the sun. In the toiddle ages, the bonnet or cap with a
narrow margin in front appears to have been in use amoug
the laity, while eccesiastics Wore hoods or cowls; but Pope
Innocent the Fourth, in the thirteenth century, allowed to
the cardinals the use of scarlet hats. About the year 1440,
the use of hats by persons on a journey appears to have been
introduced into France, and soon became common in that
country, whence, probably, it spread to ether European
states. The cap of the ancientswapscebartbal, knit.inylyma I
