Q ERJEANT'S LOTION, the only effectual Remedy

bago. Sold by the Proprietor, G. C. SERJ'EANT, No. '7, Lo-

Medicine. Price 2s. 9d. per Bottle.
This excellent Medicine, so universa steemed, is unat-
tended with the least danger or inco ience ; hundreds have
experienced its happy and salu effects since it was first
introduced; and such are tl roperties of this invaluable
Specific that persons lab ng, under the most distressing
Rheumatism, Rheuma out, and Lumbago, and rendered
thereby incapable • ssisting themselves, have been relieved
in a few hours.
The astonish' success which has crowned the application
of this exter edicine in the most hopeless and deplorable
cases, wh the unhappy sufferer had despaired of ever gaining
even the east relief, and this after the ablest advice and every
ether means had completely failed, most justly entitles it to the
attention of the afflicted.
Amongst many which are being daily received are thefolloW-

three applications I was restored to my usual health ; and, al-
though two years have passed, I have no return of the disorder.
—I am, Sir, gratefully yours, EDWARD NOYES.
Well-street, Cripplegate.
SIR, I have been several weeks confined to my bed by Gout
and Rheumatism, not a part from my head to my feet free front
pain, and as helpless as an infant: not even a finger could I
move. In this unpleasant situation I was informed by my me-
dical attendant he had applied all the usual remedies, and that
I might remain months in my deplorable situation.
Fortunately your remedy was made Known to me, or I might
have been to this day confined to my bed. After a close appli-
cation of four days, my troublesome companion began to dis-
appear; in a week I was capable of walking about my room,
and by another week's perseverance in the use of your Medi-
cine was enabled to leave London. Fearful of another attack,
you will please to send six bottles.—l am, Sir, your obedient
servant,— D. W. STONE.

Morle.o's Hotel, Strand, 18th August, 1846.
SIRS I have hitherto had a prejudice against having recourse
to advertised medicines, but as I have for years been a severe
sufferer from Lumbago, as well as Sciatica, and having tried
several of the most eminent Physicians of London and Paris, I
was induced by a friend to make a trial of your liquid, called
Seijeant's Lotion." I think it in gratitude due to you to say,
in less than an hour from the time I applied the Lotion, I felt
the most pleasant and indescribable relief. The immediate
effect was to produce a short but tranquil and most refreshing
slumber, from which I awoke to enjoy that whim was, from its
novelty, greatest happiness—perfect quietude and freedom
rom vain. The number of poor souls that suffer as I have is
immense, and if the publication of this testimony can induce
one to accept of the salvation you offer, I shall feel that I hay.
not lived in vain.—With many thanks' I am yours,

Leopoldsstadt, which was commanded by the batteries.

to be one of the principal seats of the resistance. The
Chasseurs were reported to have taken in the Landstrasse

thirty barricade

within three hours ; the regiment of Nas-
_au (some companies of which had shown mutinous dispo-
sitions on the 6th of October,) is said to have especially
distinguished itself. In the suburbs, Landstrasse and
Lerelrenfeld, the troops were favourably received by the
inhabitants, and flowers were thrown to them by the
ladies. It was also stated that a great number of the
National Guards had thrown away their arms, and that a
large quantity of weapons was found in the canal. The
operatives, on the other band showed great prowess. No
students were to be seen, and it was therefore supposed by
some that they had laid aside the distinguishing parts of
their dress in order that they might not be recognised.
Only a very few shells had, according to all appearance,
been thrown into the town. Some houses, however, es-
pecially in the suburb of Weiden, had been set on fire by
rockets ; among others, a large manufactory near the
Gloggnitzz railway station. In the night of the 29th,
during which there was ,but little firing, the Belvedere,
the Schwarzenbergische Garten, the whole of the Tager-
zeile, and the Leopold-Vorstadt were occupied by the
troops, apparently without much resistance, so that the
Viennese were on the south and east side almost confined
to the inner city. The officers declared in the suburbs
that the Prince had occupied them chiefly in order to
spare them, in case a bombardment should become neces-
sary, and in order to be enabled to assign a place of refuge
to those citizens who would not take part in the combat
for the city itself. On the morning of the 29th a deputa-
tion had been seen coming from the city to head-quarters
and it was asserted that they had continued their way in
search of Prince Windischgratz, who had set out on horse-
back to reconnoitre the Hungarians. Nothing yet was
known as to the result. It was stated that General Bern
and the students had declared they would resist to the
last. The Hungarians continued perfectly quiet. During
the engagement they had advanced nearer to the city, but
again fell back upon Briick. They had certainly not made
any attack, although a large column of smoke which rose
in the city was considered to be a signal of distress. At
half-past two o'clock, when the last intelligence was
despatched, the report of cannon was again heard.

The Turin parliament decided on the 24th inst. by a
large majority, against a resumption of the war.
The King of Denmark has just granted a liberal con-
stitution to his people.
At the present time only seventeen prisoners for debt
are confined in all the various prisons of Belgium.
Mrs. Fanny Kemble Butler has applied for a mainte-

In Hungary, all Bishops appointed by the Sovereign

RESTORED CONFIDENCE.—The Earl of Pembroke, who
had broken up his princely establishment in Paris on the
breaking out of the revolution of February, has just re-
turned to the French capital.
Prussia is suffering severely from the red republican
propagandists, who are striving to abolish all the royalties
of Get many, and substitute one united republic in their
stead. _ _ _ _ . . .

Advices from Constantinople of the 15th ultimo acquaint
us with another terrific fire at Pera, which occurred on
the 12th. The museum, mosque, hospital, medical
academy, and a number of other public and private build-
ings (in all about 280) were utterly destroyed. The loss
of property was immense.
An idea may be formed of the ruin which has over-
whelmed the shopkeepers of Paris since the revolution of
February, from the fact -that there are at present twelve
shops unoccupied in the Passage des Panoramas, in which
one has never been known to be vacant since its foundation
until the present year.
M. Thalberg has arrived in London for the winter; be
quitted Vienna just before the outbreak. A gentleman
who has recently come from the " imperial city" states
that it is impossible to describe the dreadful condition of
the peaceable inhabitants ; and as regards music, not a
note is heard, even at the public places.
PREJUDICE AGAINST COLOUR.—The daughter of Fre-
derick Douglass, an amiable and gifted little girl of nine
years of age, has been expelled from Seward Seminary,
Rochester, State of New York, on account of her colour.
Happily, in five hours' time the doors of another highly-
respectable school were opened to receive her.
THE DEATH PENALTY BY WHOLESALE.—A negro
man, named Sam Humphrey, the property of Miss Her-
berts, was tried before the County Court of Alexandria,
on Tuesday, for burglary, and, being convicted, was sen-
tenced to be hung. There are only seventy offences for
which the penalty is death, if committed by a slave in
Virginia.—New York Post.
Accounts from Spain speak of the taking of the village
of Borja, in Bayonne, by a body of one hundred Carlists.
The greater part of Aragon is up in arms, and the refu-
gees are all gone to the frontiers. A decisive movement
is spoken of, an alliance having been entered into be-
tween the Carlists and the Progresistas, the basis of which
is, that the Conde de Montemolin shall be King, giving
the Progresistas a liberal constitution—an union much
like that of Protectionists and Chartists would be in
England, one of no inherent strength.
NEW ZEALAND LANGUAGE.—We have seen the first
number of " The Anglo-Maori Warder," published at
Auckland, on Tuesday, April 25, 1848. It contains lead-
ing articles, both in English and Maori, and has adopted
for its editorial motto, " Right is better than might,"
which, in Maori, is "ra to tika i toa ai." The Warder
comments strongly on the disgrace which the colonial
newspapers have brought on the press by their parsonali-
ties, and records with approbation a sentence of two
months' imprisonment passed on the editor of the Albion,
for a libel on one of the colonial magistrates.
A VICTIM TO A THEORY.—The Boston Transcript, in
noticing the death of Lieutenant G. F. Ruxton, of the
British army, recently deceased at St. Louis, says,—"A

friend, who crossed the Atlantic with him in one of the
late steamers, informs us that he was a most intelligent
and agreeable companion, and that his object in revisiting
America was to verify a theory which he had confidently
formed, that the Moqui Indians of New Mexico are the
descendants of Prince Madoc of Wales and his followers.
While at Fort Leavenworth, Ruxton happened to enter
the log hut of an old negro woman. He had on a Moqui
blanket, and the old dame, after examining it carefully,
exclaimed, That's a Welsh blanket ; I know it by the
wool.' She had lived with a Welsh family in her youth,
and had been taught their mode of weaving. From this
and other circumstances, Ruxton was possessed with the
idea that the Moquis were genuine Welshmen, and he
avowed his determination of investigating the question or
_ .

perishing in the attempt. Our fiiend tells us that the
gallant adventurer, 3t the same time, seemed to have a
presentiment of an early death. He has fallen a victim to
an epidemic which, both here and at the west, has been
unusually virulent the present season."
