Fifty thousand cures without medicine, by Du Barry's
delicious Revalenta Arabica Food, of indigestion (dyspepsia),
constipation, nervous, bilious, and liver complaints, pera-
lvsis, &c. Cure No. 71, of dyspepsia, from the Right Ron.
the Lord Stuart de Decies :—" I have derived considerable
benefit from Du Barry's Revalenta Arabica Food, and con-
sider it due to yourselves and the public to authorise the pub-
lication of these lines. STUART DE DxccEs."—Cure No.
49,832 :—" Fifty years' indescribable agony from dyspepsia,
nervousness, asthma, cough, constipation, 11 tulency, spasms,
sickness at the stomach, and vomiting have been removed by
Du Barry's excellent food. MARIA JOLLY, Wortham Ling,
near Dies, Norfolk."--Cure No. 5,461 :—" Sixty yearepartial
paralys, affecting one half of my frame, and which bad re-
sisted all other remedies, has yielded to Du Barry's health-
restoring food, and now consider myself a stranger to all
complaints, excepting a bearty old age. WILLIAM HUNT,
Barrister-at-Law, King's College, Cambridge." Many more
important testimonials will be seen in Messrs. Du Barry's
advertisement.

BLAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PlLLS.—Extract of
letter, written by John Molard Wheeler, Esq.. Collector of
Customs, Jamaica, having been handed by lus brother, at
Swindon, to Mr. Prout, for publication :—" I know you have
never had occasion to take Blair's Pills, but let me emphati-
cally tell you, in mercy to any friend who may suffer from
gout, rheumatic gout, lumbago, aciataca, rheumatism, or any
branch of that widely-allied family, to recommend their using
them. In thi4t country they are of wonderful efficacy ; not
only am I personally aware of their powers, but I see my
friends and acquaintances receiving unfailing benefit from
their use. I would not be without them on any account. If
taken in the early stage of disease they dissipate it altogether
if in a later, they alleviate pain, and effect a much speedier
cure than by any other means within my knowledge." Sold
by all medicine vendors. See the name of "Thomas Prout,
229, Strand, London," on the government stamp,

FROM THE CRIMINAL TABLES for the year 1863 laid
before parliament, and recently printed in the form of a
blue book, it appears in that year there were 27,057 coin.,
mitments for trial in England and Wales, 6,265 of which
resulted in acquittals and discharges, and 20,756 in con-
victions. Of the criminals convicted 55 were sentenced
to death, 2,368 were transported, 18,130 were punished by
imprisonment for various terms, 201 by whipping, fines,
&c., 36 were detained as insane, and 20 were pardoned
without sentence.

THEATRICALS AT ST. PETERI3I3I73IGII.—It hal beta in:
timated to those French actors and actresses, who are
upon the Czar's pension list that their pensions will be
regularly paid, notwithstanding the war. This magna.
nimity will doubtless be accepted by the artistes without
wounding their patriotic feelings. Apropos of the stap,
the theatrical season in St. Petersburg is intended to be
unusually brilliant ; Lablache, Mdlle. de Lagrange, and
Madame Tedesco, have been engaged for the Italian
Operas at enormous salaries. Overtures were made to
Alboni, but previous engagements have compelled her to
decline them. All the rich people in I. Petersburg will
be compelled to go frequently to the theatres, in order to
prove to the Russian public that the state of foreign
affairs affords no grounds for alarm, and to second e
false confidence which Nicholas himself makes it a duty to
inspire by showing himself daily in the streets with a

jaunty gait and a forced smile.
HISTORY OF Ax Am; or LAND.—In the early days
of South Australia the land put up .for sale was sold at
12s. the acre; and by the then rules the purchaser of a
town acre was entitled to an acre in some suburban allot-
ment. One of the purchasers of such a brace of acres
held his land for a year or two, when he sold it for £4OO.
At the end of a few years the purchaser sold his country
section for L5OO, and within a few more years the town
.000. This last was re-sold, after a lapse of

acre for
three or four years, for £B,OOO. Not long since three
fourths of this acre have been disposed of for £lB,OOO, and
