bellman to go around the place, announcing that " la-

where they can obtain 4s. per day; and women are sure
of getting sufficient employment in washing and ironing
in Newport at 2s. or 2s. 6d. per day !" The poor then

DESPERATE AFFRAY.—As Constable John Banning,
one of the rural police stationed at Winchcombe, near
Cheltenham, was on duty at Haileswood, on Sunday
morning, the 21st ultimo, about five o'clock, he met with
a man in a field carrying a, bundle. Upon questioning
him what the bundle contained, the-man, without speak-
ing a word, struck the policeman a violent blow on the
side of the head with .a stick to which eight bullets were
attached by a strong cord: The policeman, recovering
himself, knocked the man down with his stick. The
latter then drew a butcher'S knife, and stabbed the officer
several times in the neck, also cutting his face and the
tendons of his right arm. A struggle, which lasted up-

They were found by a carter

Lative of Stow-on-the-Wold, who had been previously

entenced to two years' imprisonment. It was subse-
luently ascertained that the house of Mr. Trotman, of

Wineheonabe, had been. hurglariously entered, by cutting
the panel out of the door, and a quantity of property
stolen, all of whicl► was found in the bundle which the
prisoner Johns was carrying. The prisoner's right arm
has been broken in the dreadful conflict. The policeman

is doing well. •
DISTRESEI IN SCOTLAND.—On Monday Mr. E. Ellice
called the attention of the Honse of Commons to a fact

seems to beyatheioverlooked, namely

that there is

Ns much destitution in the Highlands as in'lreland itself,
although we hear a great deal less about it. Inthe course

from Mrs. Macleod of Macleod, mother of the principal
proprietor of one of the Hebridean Islands:;--` `Mr. Ellice
is perhaps aware of the great exertions. her son Macleod
has already made. The pressure upon him has become so
great that he is now compelled to throw all his unentailed
property into the market. About Christmas, he thought
by means of the Drainage Act he might
get tlixough this
terrible year without ruinous .loss, but. he now sees more
into the extent of the eVili.and he states that for the next

two mouths. the ,hole-*,population must he supported
gratis, while the men are employed in preparing their
ground for seed, and seed must be given or the conse-
quence will be awful. The quantity required for Skye
alone will be very large, and Macleod, at all events
cannot, however willing lie may be, raise the sum
necessary for his part of the island. His own ex-
pression is—' Unless some means are speedily - taken
to supply these wants, the people must starve ; there
is no help for it; for the proprietors cannot support
them any longer without assistance." Mr. Baillie, the
member for the county of Inverness, bore testimony to
similar facts : "On Saturday last be received a letter from

PANY enable it to execute Works of any extent with the great-
est promptitude.
In order to guard against the use of spurious materials, it is
important that all applications for Works to be executed, be
Made direct to this Company ; and as a further protection, it
is suggested that Engineers, Architects, and Contractors should
require a CERTIFICATE from the Company that the proper
description of material has been used.
Information may be obtained as to all Works which have
been executed by the Company since its establishment in 1838,
which will prove that the failure of many Works represented
to have been done with the genuine material, has resulted from
the substitution of a spurious one.

PRIESTLEY'S
COUGH AND ASTHMATIC DROPS,
FOR COUGHS, COLDS, ASTIIMAS, CONSUMPTIONS,

i.e.
HIS invaluable Medicine immediately relieves
T
Coughs, Colds, Hoarseness, Difficulty of Breathing, and
Huskiness in the Throat.

These Drops are also the best preventive that can be taken
against Spitting of Blood and Affection of the Lungs. Persons
troubled with Asthma are considerably relieved by taking a few
doses of the Drops, as they tend to promote expectoration and
remove viscid phlegm. For the speedy cure of the Hooping
Cough they are no less efficacious. Those who are troubled
with that unpleasant tickling in the throat, which deprives them
of rest night after night, by the incessant Cough which it pro-
vokes, will, by taking one dose, fmd immediate relief ; and one
bottle in most cases, will effect a cure.

Sir,—l have great pleasure in informing you of the great good
your excellent Cough Lozenges have done me. In December 1845
I caught a severe cold from riding two or three miles, one very
wet night, which settled in my lungs, and finite took away my
voice, so that I could not speak above a whisper from that time

until the beginning of December last. I tried all kinds of
medicines; but they were of•no avail. I was then advised to try
your Lozeases, which I did onlyto please my friends; but be-
