FIVE HUNDRED PEUSONS DESTROYED…
FIVE HUNDRED PEUSONS DESTROYED BY A WATERSPOUT. On Saturday last, intelligence was received at Lloyd's, under date MalIa, Monday, the 8th instant, of a most awtul occurrence at the Island off Sicily, which had been swept by two enormous waterspouts, accompanied by a terrific hurricane. Those who witnessed the phenomena describe the waterspouts as two im- mense spherical bodies of water, reaching from the clouds, their cones nearly touching the earth, and, as far as could be judged, ataquaiterof a mile apart, travelling with immense velocity. They passed over the island near Alaisala. In their progress houses were unroofed, trees uprooted, men and women, horses, cattle, and sheep were raised up, driion into their voitex, and borne on to destiuction during their passage, rain descended in calafaclg, accompanied with hailstones of enormous size, and masses of tee. Going over Cssiellarnare, near Stabis, it tie stroyed ball the town, and washed 200 of the inhabitants into the sea, who all perished. Upwards of 500 persons have been destroyed hy this terrible visitation, and an immense amount of property, the country being laid waste for miles. The shipping in the harbour suffered severely, many vessels being desiroyed, and their crews drowned. After the occurrence, numbers ol dead human bodies were picked up, all frightfully mutilated and swollen,
INSURANCE AGAINST ACCIDENTS…
INSURANCE AGAINST ACCIDENTS OF ALL KINDS. The chapter of accidents is a chequered page—sometimes comic passiges-inoie of eo scenes of sadness, inviting itie most serious considerations, A newspaper without an account of one or more accidents of the latier kind, is scarcely ever taken up, and lamentable as is such an occurrence to the sufTerei himself it rarely happens to a wurking-niso, whether be, be employed in a profession or a trade, as a mechanic or a labourer, without causing privation and loss to several others besides himself, who are dependent on him for their livelihood and support. II indeed he be so foriunate as to have other resources besides the profi,s of his ordinary occupation, a disabling accident will only partially affect him with distress. But it is a much more serious affair when a man's whole incoine is derived only from the labour of his head or hands. Let him be but temporalily disabled, and he is thrown into immediate enibarriissixient aod a fatal accident is at once a deathblow to him,ell, and a sentence of destitution to his family. Has he a wife and ciiildren-wliai then) is their conditu n? For a lime they rely perhaps on the kindness of their friends, and 'he casual benevolence 01 strangers; failing such assistance, how often does their future lot become a continued struggle, by honest or dishonest means, to maintain a wretched, perhaps a shameful existence, inde pendent of the workhouse i We were led to ,he,e leflecttons by the very unp'easant cir cumstance of witnessing an accident in the streets of London. A man fell from a scaffolding at out feel, a powerful. fine young fellow of six or seven-and-twenty. The dull muffled crash, as the full, muscular body struck the pavement, was inexpressibly shocking and an unnatural sideways bending of the leg, as we raised him from the ground (indicating a fraciure), was not cal- culated to relieve our feeling. Shortly after-and a bitter day it was !-we visited him at the hospital his injuries were severe, and there was no probability that he would be fit for work for the next ihree months. The lucky fellow, however, was attended by a fine young woman, who proved to be his wife, and to whom he was indebted for four b'ooming pledges of an affection which had all the appearance of sincerity on both sides. They may thank her," said lie, for the comforts they still enjoy while I am thus laid up." We thought he was tefening to his wife's industry bllt it was not that. She laboured hard indeed, but her gains were small, and her abode being distant, much time was lost in walking to and from the hospital. You see, sir," he continued, her brother works in a printing establishment, which is employed by the Accidental Insurance Company," aod from him she learnt all abott it and at last, after much talk, thank God she persuaded me to iosure against the chance of accidents." "Railway accidents, you mean I- but your case has nothing to do with travelling by rail." No, no, Sir you mistake. My insurance applies to every kind of accident, and to this among the rest. It was only last month that I took out a policy it cost me fifteen shillings, and I never laid out my money to better profit." Insurance against accidents of all kiods, as distinguished from that confined to railway accidents, is a subject which was adverted to in a previous number of this journal, and we were glad to have an opportunity of obseiving it in operation. Pursuing our inquiries, therefore, with much interest we learned that, for his 15s., there was insured to the man's family. in the event of his de»lh by an accident within twelve months, the sum of £ 100 and also £ 1 a week payable to him bs long as he was disabled by a similar cause from wotk and no bad bargain had he made of ir. The poor fellow was Dot free from pain in his wounded limb; but the kindly cheerfulness with which he turned to a fellow-sufferer, and said (after whispering to his wife)-' Your missus should not have come out this cold morning without her shawl my Jane has got something for her," -contrasted strikingly with the haggard anxiety 01 the half- clad object of his sympathy, whose main resource in this hour of trouble too plainly was the pawnbroker. Had our friend's insurance been aglllOt accidental death alone, instead of against all accidents fatal or non-fatal, for the same amount of 15a., the sum insured to his family would have been £300, he being a mason, and therefore, according to the rules of the company, in their second class. To a first-class m £ ihe amount is £ 600. This company is young, and is as yet but little known but there is no doubt that such an institution is calculated to be of the greatest general utility and importance. We have not now to learn that no caution nor other means will avail to save a man from the liability to accidents that such evt-tits are as cel- tain to fall on some (on many indeed), as death is to coma to all and that as any one at any moment may be appointed to reteive the blow, and there is no possibility 01 foreseeing who shall be the victim, it concerns all men to be prepared for the event. Nor need we be told that no provisional expedient is so proper for the purpose as insurance. The event contemplared is indeed contingent only, but insurance against particular risks is no new thing houses and ships are constantly insured ogainst the danger of fire and the perils of the sea. In these cases the pln has, after long trial, proved eminently successful. More recently the person has been insured against the single case of accident by railway snd an argument is thus readily supplied that, if in such cases insurance be a wise and proper measure, much more is it reasonable to insure our lives and limbs againgi accidents of all kinds As an illustration, take thecase of fire. Insurance of houses against destruction by that particular, event is as common as it is deemed pitdent and advisable. Now a man's power to woik, and so to produce for himself wnges, salary, or other income, cannot be considered less valuable, probably it will be held much more so, than his house; and be it also observed, that instead of being exposed to the risk of one destructive element enly, this power is liable to be lost or impaired by a hundred different kinds of accident. Well, then, every reason that exists for in- surance against a single cause of accident, applies to insurance against the whole catalogue of personal casualties, of course with manifold more force. One word now as to the amount of premium required. This has been the subject of most carfeul calculation prolonged for many months by an accurate and experienced actuary and the result is, we are assured, that he is quite satisfied of the remu- nerative sufficiency of the arr,ount charged, small as it may ap. pear in comparison with the amount insured. The principle ap. pears to be, that whete a heavy loss impends, and is sure to fall on some or one more amongst many individuals, the cheapest and most effective means of meeting it is for each to submit to a small periodical s-iciifice, for the purposeof forming an insurance lund applicable to the event. The extent of such sacrifice of course depends on the nature of the risk. We have shown how small, how reasonably small, is the sum 'Ons c annually required for this purpose. And considering the com- moo liability to accidents, their inevitable nature, their fre- quency,* and calamitous results, the piobability is, that this mode of insurance will meet with favour from the public, and become a general, as we are sure it will be found a prudential, and most useful practice.— Chambers' Journal. Some idea of the number of accidents may be formed from the fact. that in the single month of December last, in London alone, and in one hospital only-ibe London Hospilal-772 cases of accident were admiiied. These of course are exclusive of the greater catastrophes by wrecks and explosions such as Ihe loss of the Orion, or the explosion at W allsend, where 101 (or at South Shields, where 95) persons were destroyed at one blast 1 Even while we write, fifty or sixty people have miserably perished in the Victoria Pit, and again thirteen or fourteen just now at Stockport.

Kirkus, Chemist, 7, Prescot- Street, Liverpool, dated 6th June, 1851. To Professor HOLLOWAY, SIR,—Your Pills and Ointment have stood the highest onour sale listof Proprietary Medicines, for someyears. A customer to whom I can refer for any enquiiies, desires me 10 let you know the particulars of her case. She had been troubled for years with a disordered liver, and bad digestion. On the last ocoasion, however, the virulence of the attack was so alarming, and the inflammation set in so severely, that doubts were entertained of her being able to bear up under it; fortunately she was induced to try your Pills, and she infoims me that after the first, and each succeeding dose, she had great relief. She continued to take them, and although she used only three Boxes, she is now in the enjoyment of perfect health. I could have sent you many mor. cases, but the above, from the severity of the attack, and speedy cure, I think, speaks much in favour of your astonishing Pilis. (Signed) R. W. KI RK US. AN EXTRAORDINARY CURE OF RHEUMATIC FEVER, IN VAN DIEMAN'S LAND. Copy of a Letter inserted in the Hobart Town Courier, of the 1st of March, 1851. by Major J. Walch. Margaret M'Coonican, nineteen years of age,residing at New Town, had been suffering from a violent rheumatic fever for upwards of two months, which had entirely deprived her of Ihe use of her limbs during this period she was under Ihe care of the most eminent medical men in Hobart Town, and by them her case was considered hopeless. A friend prevailed upon her to try Holloway's celebrated Pills, which she consented to do, and in an incredibly short space of time, they effected a perfect CURE OF A PAIN AND TIGHTNESS IN THF. CHEST AND STOMACH OF A PERSON 84 YEARS OF AGE. From Messrs. Thew &; Son, Proprietors of the Lynn Advertiser, who can vouch for the following statement.—August 2nd, 1851. To Prcfessor HOLLOWAY, gI(l __1 desire to bear testimony to the good effects of Hollo- way's Pills. For some years I suffered severely from a pain and tightness in the stomach, which was also accompanied by a shortness of breath, that prevented me from walking about. I am 84 years of age, and notwithstanding my advanced state of life these Pills have so relieved me, that I am desirous that others should be made acquainted with their virtues. I am now rendered, by their means, comparatively active, and can take exercise without inconvenience or pain, which I could not do before. (Signed) HENRY COE, North-Street, Lynn. Norfolk. AN EXTRAORDINARY CURE OF THE GRAVEL, AND A MOST DANGEROUS LIVER COMPLAINT. Copy of a Letter addreaed to J. K. Heydon, Eiq., Sydney, New South Wales, dated February 2oth, 1851. SIR,—A Mr. Thomas Clark, a Settler at Lake George, was for a considerable time seriously afflicted with a complaint of the Liver, together with the Gravel. His medical attendants, after trying all their stiill, candidly told him that his case was hopeless, and any further efforts useless. In this situation, and when expecting every day would terminate his existence, a friend recommended him to try Holloway's Pills, and as a for- lorn hope, he did so the first dose gave him considerable relief he therefore persevered in taking them according tothediiections and is now restored to perfect health. He will feel great pie s, sore in confirming this statement, or even make an affidavit to the same effect, should it he required. 0 (Signed) WM.

HALSE'S LETTERS ON 3VEESICAX. GALVANISM. (For the other Letters on Medical Galvanism, Invalids are soli- cited to send to Mr. Halse for his Pamphlet. See below.) LFTTEII 1. PARALYSIS.—TO INVALIDS.-Galvanism has for a long t time been resorted to as a powerful remedial agent, but, unfortunately, it has been applied by men totally ignorant of its principles. Can it, therefore, be woodered at that it has so frequently failed of producing any beneficial effects ? Ily great improvement in the Galvanic Apparatus was a method to legulate its power to the greatest nicety, so that an infant may be galvanlsed without experiencing the least unpleasantness; but no sooner do I make It public that I havemadeihisdiscovery, than a hostof imitators spring up like mushrooms, and stale that they are also in possession of the secret and, by all 1 lieir, a veiy pretry mess they make of their secret. Now, all tlle world knows hyw eminently successful I have been in cases of Paralysis, particulaily in recent cases. This success I attribute entirely to my superior method of regulati g the power ot the galvanic apparatus; for, without a perfect tegulating power, it is ullerly impossible to produce successful results. Scarcely a week passes but I have two or three patients who have been either galvanised by some pretender, or have been using that ridiculous apparatus called the electio-rnngnetic or electro- galvanic apparatus, and, as may he leasotiably expected, without the slightest benefit. Many pretenders in the country, having heard of my great success, and my high standing as a medical galvanist in London, have made it public that they have received instructions from me, and are acting as my agents and, not satisfied with this, are actually selling apparatuses, representing them to be mine. I shall, of course, endeavour to put a stop to this. In ilie meantime, 1 now staietliat my galvanic apparatuses can be procured from me only, as I employ no agents whatever. I will now endeavour to show how galvanism acts in cases of paralysis. Paralysis, or Palsy, consists of three varieties-the hemiplegic. the paraplegic, and the local palsy. In Ihe first, the patient is paralysed on ooe side ooly in the -second, the lower part of the body is affected on both sides aod in the third kind, particular limbs are affected. The cause of the attacks is the withdrawal of nervous influence from the nerves and muscles of the various parts. Now, Galvanism has been proved by Ihe most eminent physiologists ig, be capable of supplying the nervous influence to those parts of 1 lie body which may be defi- cient of it. and hence the leason of its astonishing efleci in cases of paralysis. In patients thus afflicted, I find that some parts ol the spine are less sensitive than other paris and, until those paris are atoused into action, the patient will not recover. Any medical man, who knows anything whaiever 01 Galvanism, will be at once convinced how applicable Galvanism must he to such complaints; for nol only does it arouse the dormant nerves and muscles into aclioo, but it supplies them with that fluid of which they are deficient-viz., the nervous fluid. I think it, however, but fair to sla e that, 111 case* of paralysis of long duration, I as flequently fail as succeed, whilst in recent cases I generally succeed. till, Galvanism should be res,.ried to in every case of paralysis, no matter ol how long duration it might have been,—for it cannot possibly do any harm, and it may do good. I repeat, Galvanism is a nowerful remedy in cases of paralysis. r Health is the greatest worldly blessing we can enjoy, and yet many invalids, t'or tile Qake of saving a few guineas, will pur- chase apparr I uses w liichareentil-ely useless for medica I purposes. Galvanism, they say, is Galvanism no mutter whether the price of the apparatus be much or Utile. They may as well say a fiddle is a fiddle, and that there is no diflerence in them. Surely no one of common sense, who feels desirous of testing the re- medial powers of Galvanism, will, lor the sake of a few guineas, tbrow his money away by purchasing an imperfect instead of a perfect apparatus. He may as well not try Galvanism at all as try it with an inefficient apparatus. These tatter remarks I address Particularly to invalids but how much stronger do they apply medical men who are applying Galvanism 1 1 hey hnd it fail of Producing those wondet tu, effects which I have found it to producel And why is it? Simply.becausethey are using an imperfect apparatus. Scalcelya day passes but I receive an oiderformy galvanic apparatus from medical men.whohave been Using the small machines", and found them useless. 1 conrlnHe by stating, that if Medical men employ Galvanism a* all in their practice, they are bound, both in duty to themselves and to their patients, lo use the apparatus in its perfect form.

Extract from the Medical Gazette and l'imes. Fortunately for our country, a moreefficient (because certain) mode of treat- ing those deplorable complaints, is at last introduced and we hail the time as not far distant when such diseases shall be com- paratively llnheardof; we would earnestly recommend all persons afflicted with any kind 01 generative derangement, to avail them- selves of the information contained in almost every page of Dr De Roos' work, which we unhesitatingly pronounce the best extant." THE MEDICAL ADVISER is indeed a boon to the pub. lie, as it has the two-fold advantage of plainness, and being writlen by a skilful and duly qualified man, who evidently well understands his subject. IV, Times. This is a work of superlative excellence, and one we should recommend to the perusal of all; in fact, the information therein conveyed is quite essential to those of either sex who contem- plate marriage."—Record. Many a man, who, unman led and miserable, is now enduring in silent sorrow ttie penalties of former folly (perhaps committed in ignorance), had he possessed such a book as this, would have been a happy husb md. a honoured parent, and useful member of society."—B. A. Dispatch, January 19. The diffidence and fear of exposure, consequent on these affec- it tions, fiequently prevent persons applying for assistance, until great mischief has been inflicted on the constitution and powers of life. It is hoped the perusal of this work will teach such persons the evils of delay, and lead them at once to seek that as- sistance which alone can save them from the horrors of an ex- istence protracted amidst long-enduring wretchedness, both mental and physical. Lasting benefit can only be reasonably expected at the hands of the intelligent and practical physician, who, departing from the routine of general practice, devotes the whole of his studies to this class of disease, the lamentable neglect of which by ordinary medical men, and their futile attempts at cure by mer- cury and other equally dangerous medicines, have produced the most alarming results. From the great extent of Dr. De Roos' practice for many years, and his former connection with the various Institutions, both in London and Paris, for the relief of those afflicted with debility, syphilis, secondaiv symptoms, strictures, gleet, vene- real and scorbutic eruptions, &c., &c., of the face and body, he has had perhaps unusual facilities for observing the peculiarities and consequences of each particular stage. Hence he is enabled confidently and conscientiously to undertake the removal of every symptom (not excepting the most inveterate or long standing) in as short a time as is consistent with safety, or return the money.

AMIDST the universal depreciation in all kinds of produce /TL and in which British Wines have also partaken during the last two years, "STIVENS'S ORIGINAL GREEN GINGER WINE" has alone maintained its value. The approbation thus bestowed upon it by the public taste, is ofitself a sufficiently distinguishing character. It would be diffi- cult to find another article in this country which has not been ma- terially altered in price. It is a well-known fact that the original mode of purifying the Green Ginger, as discovered by Stiven. and Co., is known to no other parties, and this knowledge en- ables them to sustain the character of their "Original Green Ginger Wine." ° There can be no better proof, or recognition of the value of this choice receipt, than that afforded by the public themselves in the steadily increasing demand for it, in preference to other Wines offered at a much lower price, but probably yielding a better profit to the makers. In order to maintain that character which the Original Green Ginger Wine" so justly merited, and has so well pre- served, while every other article has lost its standing and given way in price, and to protect their friends from imposition, which they would be otherwise subjected to, Messrs. Stivens and Co. request all persons to observe thefac simile of the signature on the label, over the neck of each Bottle. G&Tztz/ Stivens's Orange Tonic" is now brought to a state of per- fection, and has received the same high testimonials which the most eminent Medical men in England, have accorded to the Original Green Ginger Wine."

DREADFUL BOILER EXPLOSION.
DREADFUL BOILER EXPLOSION. BRISTOL, DEC. 13.-A fatal boiler explosion took place yes- terday afternoon, at the Sound well Lower Pit, Kingswood, near this city, the property of Mr. Wiiittuck. One man named Thomas Waller, was killed on the spot, and others were severely injured. The boiler. it seems, had been at work for some four or five years, and just before the accident, the engine, which is of tweoty-hoise power, and had been examined enly theprevious day, had hauled up a journey" of men, and sent down a cart of timber. The men at the bOilor" of the pit were engaged in takiog this out when the accident occurred, and it being pay- day, a laiye number had also congregated round the mouih of the pit. The noise of the explosion of course created the utmost alarm to them, the engine-house being completely shattered to pieces, and the bricks scattered in every direction. Besides this, upwards of twenty feet of the chimney stack was knocked to aioms, and the boiler itself, weighing many tons, was projected o a distance exoeeding 100 feet, completely ploughing up the lortion of the field in which it fell. The engineer,George Bush, scaped unhurt.
