ished up to suit depraved appetites, under the
name of medicines. DIR. j. WALKERS CALL

They are not beverage, but genuine medi-

eases of the stomach, liver, kidneys, bladder,

Cs,EopATRA's NEEDLE.-"An Anglo-Esyp-
tan writes letter to the London lines con-
corning proposal to transport the PROSTATE
sNeeile" from Alexandra and erect It on the
Thames Embankment as follows:
In lS52a similar proposal was made BY the
promoters of the Sydcnbam Palace, and the
writer, (then living in Alexandria, took some
trouble to ascertain its condition and the practl
cability of it's removal. At that tune 1t was e2-
posed and easily examined. 1t was found that
the angles of the obclisk were much Clipped,
the hierrglyphics on one square almost entirely
oblitcsaseI aud it was considered not worth. the
li;;Jor aud.cost of transportation 1t has SIEGE
been covered up BY the Notifications, ;,
The only way to remove 1t Woula De that
adopted BY the French in the case OF the LUXOR
Monolilh (now in the Place dc la Concordel !
namely, Is removing part Of the wall OF the Tor
t;f;,atiious. and digging canal deep enough to
feat caisson, which must be built round It as
!, lies, aud thus towed during finc weather to
Easiaul.. The east harbor is. unfortunately,
sha!.ow, and ships cannot approach within a
quarter OF mile of its site, so that the trans
bort and shipment of the needle on board
vessel constructed with an opening to. receive
and a platform TO carry it (as at the time pro-
Iosadj would be u matter OF extreme difficulty.
On the whole, l continue of opinion that 1t IS
not worth the trouble in its present state, and
| doubt it il is capable Of restoration.
