THE DISTRESS.-The same gloomy monotony pervades
all the accounts from the county of Cork. Mortality
seems to be increasing rather than diminishing. It appears
that, from the 27th of December, 1846, to the end of last
—a period of less than four months-2,130 persons
perished in the city union workhouse alone. The

I Cork -Examiner of Friday contains the following shocking

day witnessec

and appalling spectacle, at-the Shannon guard-house, at
the foot of Mallow-lane. Under the sheds attached to
that building lay some 38 human beings—old and young
men, women, children, and infants of the tenderest age-
all huddled together, like so many pigs or dogs, on the
ground, without any other covering but the rags on their
persons, and these in the last stage of filth mid hideousness.
There they lay—some dying—some dead—all gaunt and
yellow, and hideous with famine and disease. We have
seen many sights of horror within the last month, but
never anything equal to this congregated mass of human
debasement. The sme iat came from the unfortunates
was offensive in the extr me, and was sufficient of itself to
propagate disease. Two of these wretched people died
this morning—a man and a child. how many will follow
them before the evening to their home of eternal peace,
we may not calculate. Several dead bodies—principally
of children—were found this morning in various parts of
the city. Hundreds of wretched objects 1.

WOOD'S VENTILATING HATS.—The construction of
these hats (though not patented) is certainly in efficacy
equal to, if it does not surpass, any of the projects for
ventilating hats that kave been made public ; and what is
more important, it does not impair the bodies. A glance
at one of them will at once prove their excellence.
PHOTOGRAPHIC PORTRAITS.—AII parties visiting Lon-
don will have an excellent opportunity of procuring the
most striking likenesses at Mr. Claude's daguerrotype
portrait establishment. Mr. C. has greatly improved
this process, and has much improved the pictorial effect
of the miniatures by the introduction of back-grounds.
The portraits no longer present the death-like appearance
which has been long urged as a great &feet, but are at
once accurate, and pleasing to look at.

COURT AND FASHION.

It is expected that her Majesty and the Prince Consort,
accompanied by the Royal family, will pay a visit in a few
days to Osborne House, previously to the full dress ball
to be given by the Queen at Buckingham Palace on the
14th inst.
The Queen gave a juvenile party on Monday afternoon,
at Buckingham Palace, in celebration of the birthday of
the Princess Alice. The Queen Dowager and the Duchess
of Kent were present on the occasion ; and numbers of
the nobility and gentry accompanied by the juvenile mem-
bers of their respective families.
Sunday week was the anniversary of the birth of the
Princess Alice, third child of her Majesty, born 25th
April, 1843 ; also of the Duchess of Gloucester, born 25th
April, 1776.
The Earl of Sefton has left Croxteth for London,. for

the season.
The Earl of Portarlington is shortly to be married to
Lady Alexandrina Vane, daughter of the Marquis of Lon-
donderry.
The Emperor of Russia has recently forwarded a medal
to the Duke of Richmond, as President of the Royal
Agricultural Association of England, and in testimony of
his grace's exertions for the promotion and encourage-
ment of agriculture.
THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON'S BlRTHDAY.—Saturday
being thelst of May, was the anniversary of " The Duke's '
birthday, and as he was born in 1769, he has now cdrri-
pleted his 78th year. Napoleon was also born in 1769,
the year, therefore, must be considered a memorable one
in giving birth to two such great men, and more particu-
larly so from their being both eminent in the same pro-
fessiou of arm.

THE ORIGINAL METALLIC STROP,
(milt FOUR SIDES,)
For keeping Razors in perfect order.
HE METALLIC TABLET STROP, invented
T
in the year 1816, by Mr. George Saunders, of New York,
was favourably received by the public as far surpassing any
other Razor Strop. The first Cutlers in Europe, after trial,
have acknowledged its superiority, and many use it in prefer-
ence to the Hone, the effect being much more powerful, and
requires neither oil or water. A keen smooth edge to a Razor,
so necessary to shave with comfort is obtained and kept without
having recourse to any other means.
The American Institute for the E agemenf Science, in
consideration of its superior e and qualities, awarded the
Inventor a Silver Medal iploma.
Sold by Mr. T. Ss , (who is appointed Sole Agent,) 4,

10s. each.
A single Strop will he sent to any part of theiKingdom, free,
on receipt of•Postoftice Order or Stamps for the amount.
A liberal allowance to the trade:
"Saunders's Razor Strop, with its four sides, combines ad-
mirably all the requisites to sharpen and set Razors, with a fine
and smooth edge; it is a real comfort to possess it."

HOLLOWAY'S PILLS.

A PATIENT IN A DYING STATE, CURED OF A DIS-
ORDER IN THE CHEST.

Extract of a Letter from 4r. Robert Calvert, Chemist, Stokes-

ly, dated January 29th, 1847.
SIR,—Mr. Thompson' National Schoolmaster of this Town,
desires me to send you the particulars respecting a Son of his,
who had been seriously ill for three years and a half, and who
has derived the greatest benefit from the use of your medicines,
after trying all ordinary resources without effect. The Boy is
eight years of age, of strumous or scrofulous constitution. He
seems to have had a Pleurizy which ended in a large collection
of matter in the Chest, which eventually formed a passage
through the wales of the Chest, which ended hi three fistulous
sores, which continued to discharge large quantities of pus up
to May, when he was induced to try your medicines; at this
date he was in an apparent dying condition, and in the highest
degree of Marasmus or Consumption. He had severe hectic
fever, the urine depositing large quantities of sediment—con-
stant distressing cough—no appetite—and the Stomach reject-
ing nearly every thing he took, both food and medicine, he be-
gan by taking five of your Pills night and morning, which were
gradually increased to ten, which in a short time bad the effect
of completely curing the Cough, the Stomach affections, and
restoring the urine to its natural state. his strength and flesh
are also restored, and his appetite keen and digestion good.

thanking you before this time for yourpoliteness in sending
me your pills as you did. I now take this opportunity of send-
ing you an order for the amount, and, at the same time, to add
that your pills have effected a cure of a disorder in toy Liver

nay, not even the waters of Carlsbad and Marienbad. I wish

ruled i❑ one of the defendant's vessels on an African

voyage in the capacity of supercargo, and was to be paid
in the usual way, according to a contract drawn up, by a
per centage on the cargo, which consisted of palm oil.

The form of the contract was as follows :—That the plain-

the homeward cargo, deducting the usual charge, as ar-
ranged by the African Association, namely, £4.per ton
